Ruben Amorim has emerged as a surprise contender for the Manchester United managerial position, according to the latest betting odds. The Sporting Lisbon boss is now among the favourites to replace the current manager at Old Trafford, following a shift in the market.
Amorim, who has impressed in Portugal, is seen as a potential candidate despite his relative inexperience at the highest level. The 38-year-old has been linked with a move to the Premier League after guiding Sporting to the Primeira Liga title last season.
The news comes as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitted his shock at Manchester United selling Scott McTominay. The former United manager expressed surprise at the departure of the Scottish midfielder, who was a product of the club's academy.
Manchester United have struggled for consistency this season, leading to speculation about the manager's future. The club's hierarchy are reportedly considering their options, with Amorim now in the frame alongside other candidates.
