It Was Now Or Never, Or Manchester Would Go For Another Option,says Amorim
However, Manchester United, eager for an immediate replacement for the recently dismissed Erik ten Hag, issued an ultimatum: accept the job now or lose the opportunity. After careful consideration, Amorim ultimately chose to make the move.
Speaking after Sporting's emphatic 5-1 victory in the Primeira Liga, Amorim opened up about the whirlwind decision-making process that led him to Manchester. “The season started, we started very well, and then Manchester United came. They paid above the compensation clause, and the president defended the club’s interests,” he explained. “For three days, I said I wanted to stay until the end of the season, but then I was told it was not possible. It was now or never, or Manchester would go for another option. So, I had three days to make a decision that changes radically my life.”
