Cristiano Ronaldo’s nickname for Ruben Amorim emerges and it’s telling about his character
Cristiano Ronaldo's description of Ruben Amorim will have Manchester United fans giddy with glee ahead of the latter's looming arrival.
talkSPORT understands the Red Devils have agreed a £8.3million fee with Sporting to prise Amorim out of his contract.
Amorim has also verbally agreed personal terms with United, with the Premier League giants hopeful a deal can be concluded in time for him to take charge of the match against Chelsea on Sunday.
Barring any last-minute hitches, the United gig will be Amorim's fifth managerial role having previously worked at Casa Pia and Braga's first and second teams.
Amorim will take over a Red Devils side languishing in 14th on the Premier League table and in desperate need of a spark to kickstart their season.
