Ruben Amorim Reveals Why He Joined Manchester United
The new manager of Manchester United, Ruben Amorim, has listed the prestige of the Premier League club as one of the reasons why he joined the Red Devils.
Ruben Amorim who is currently 39-year-old made the transition from coaching Sporting CP in the Portuguese Primeira Liga to the high-pressure environment of Old Trafford, fueled by a profound connection to Manchester United and the club’s storied legacy.
In a recent interview with United’s official website, Amorim said his decision was significantly influenced by the strong rapport he felt with the club’s personnel.
He emphasized that for him, working alongside individuals he respects and relates to is of utmost importance.
“First of all, I think I felt a connection with the club. And when I say with the club, everybody knows Man United,” he explained.
Moreover, Amorim revealed his reverence for Manchester United’s rich history, stating, “The second point is the history of this club. All the people are hungry for success, and I feel that this is the place that I want to be also because of that.”
He recognizes the immense ambition and drive among the club’s supporters and staff, which he finds inspiring and motivating. This ambition resonates with his career aspirations, providing a unique opportunity to contribute to something truly significant rather than just being another name in the managerial ranks.
Amorim also praised the unique atmosphere at Manchester United, particularly during matchdays, saying: “When you see the game here when you see the games, the interaction with the managers, with the players, even in difficult moments, I think it is a special club.”
