Man United players are shocked by what Manuel Ugarte says about Ruben Amorim: “my teammates have asked.”

Manchester United player Manuel Ugarte talked about Ruben Amorim, who will be the new head coach.

Manchester United has hired Ruben Amorim as their new head coach. The Portuguese boss will begin his job on November 11.

Before then, Amorim is finishing up his contract obligations at Sporting, and Ruud van Nistelrooy is taking over as manager.

Up until then, United players are just as interested as United fans in what Ruben Amorim will bring. One person has a unique perspective.

Ruben Amorim and Manuel Ugarte

Summer sign-up Manuel Ugarte knows a lot about Ruben Amorim because he used to play for Sporting and was under him.

This will help Ugarte reach his goal of becoming an important part of the Manchester United team, and it will also help Amorim by giving him a player who already knows a lot about his ideas.

After Manchester United’s game against Chelsea, Ugarte talked to DAZN. His interview was also covered by the Portuguese newspaper Record.

Ugarte said he totally understands why Sporting fans are sad that Amorim is leaving because he wants to try something new.

He said, “I saw that Sporting fans were mad, and I can see why—the coach is a great coach.” We need to use the fact that it’s good for United to our advantage and get him to say what he wants as soon as possible.

“I think the dynamic will be different, but the day-to-day will be the same as at Sporting.” Leagues, countries, games… We all know he can do it, even though it’s a big task for him.

“That’s good news, mostly because the club needs to start making plans, which is important, and the coach will play a big role in that,”

On United stars, Ugarte

At Manchester United, Manuel Ugarte said it was only natural that his friends would ask him about the new head coach.

The new manager, Amorim, is only 39 years old, which has surprised many of the players, he said.

“My teammates have asked a lot about him,” Ugarte said. His age was what caught them off guard.

Another important thing is that he really wants to win. He’ll enjoy it, I’m sure.

For the first time since Sir Matt Busby, Amorim is the youngest manager of Manchester United.

He is the only boss of Sporting since 1953 to win more than one league title with the club, so he comes with a track record you can trust.
