“I know Erik ten Hag made some mistakes which caused him his job but for signing that particular player, it shows he’s a professional coach… I’m so happy to have that player in my team”: Man United’s new coach Ruben Amorim applauds Erik ten Hag for signing a generational talent last summer but blamed him for not using the player

According to reports, Ruben Amorim has high expectations for a Manchester United player following his appointment as manager of the Red Devils on a contract that extends until 2027.

The 39-year-old has departed Sporting CP to join United and succeed Erik ten Hag, who was terminated last month. On Monday, following his departure from Sporting, he arrived at Carrington and encountered several players who are presently on international duty with their respective countries.

Amorim’s inaugural match as manager will be on November 24, when they face off against Ipswich Town at Portman Road. There is already a great deal of anticipation regarding the Portuguese coach’s capabilities with a squad of players who have underperformed and are currently ranked 13th in the Premier League.

This week, the new manager encountered him for the first time and regards him as “one of the most intriguing players to develop.”

In the summer, Yoro inked a five-year contract with United after joining from Lille for a fee of £52 million. Nevertheless, the 19-year-old centre-back has had a dreadful start to the season, as he sustained a metatarsal injury during the preseason, which has caused him to be sidelined for several months.

Amorim and his staff will have their own notions, but Fabrizio Romano has information regarding the athlete they are most enthusiastic about collaborating with. Amorim regards juvenile defensive starlet Leny Yoro as a “generational talent,” as per the Italian correspondent, which aligns with the club’s assessment of his potential.

Consequently, he has yet to make a competitive appearance for the Red Devils. However, United’s supporters are eagerly anticipating his comeback to action.

Mason Mount is considered a critical component of Amorim’s strategy following a challenging start to his tenure at United, according to a separate report from The Sun.
