- United ready to pay €10m (£8.3m) release clause
- Amorim tight-lipped on move after Nacional game
Rúben Amorim is poised to be confirmed as Manchester United’s manager after Sporting said the Premier League club were ready to pay his release clause of €10m (£8.3m).
Sporting issued a statement to Portugal’s financial regulator, the securities market commission, saying United “had expressed interest” in hiring the 39-year-old and paying the termination fee. United entered talks with Amorim’s representatives after sacking Erik ten Hag on Monday, offering a three-year deal worth about £6.5m a season.
