Ruben Amorim’s Next Move: Shocking New Role That Could Shake Football to Its Core
Amorim spent most of his playing career at Benfica, making 154 appearances for the club, but crossed the city to manage Sporting Lisbon in 2020.
He won three Portuguese league titles with Benfica and two more as manager of Sporting Lisbon, and Rodrigues suggested that the ability to win in Portugal was looked upon favourably by Benfica bosses.
Mourinho only joined the club mid-season, but has helped them qualify for the Champions League knockout play-offs and remain unbeaten in the league. Whilst impressive, they are seven points off leaders Porto, and level on points with second placed Sporting, who have a game in hand.
Amorim’s stint at Man United dealt a heavy blow to his reputation, and Michael Carrick‘s success since taking over has lead to more questions than answers over his 14-month reign.
