This decision comes after the recent dismissal of Erik ten Hag, who was sacked following a series of disappointing performances that left the team struggling in the Premier League. Ten Hag's tenure ended after a 2-1 defeat to West Ham United, which was the final straw for the club's management.
In the interim, former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy will take charge of the team. Van Nistelrooy, who has been serving as an assistant manager, will lead the squad until Amorim officially assumes his duties.
Amorim's first match as Manchester United's head coach is set for November 24, when the team will face Ipswich Town away at Portman Road. This game will mark the beginning of a new era for the Red Devils under Amorim's leadership.
Manchester United released an official statement expressing their excitement about Amorim's appointment, highlighting his impressive track record, including winning the Primeira Liga twice with Sporting CP. The statement described him as "a highly rated young coach in European football."
This weekend, Manchester United will host Chelsea at Old Trafford on Sunday, November 3. This match will be crucial as the team looks to recover from recent setbacks and build momentum under Van Nistelrooy's interim management.
