Ruben Amorim appeared highly motivated as he led his Sporting Lisbon squad in training ahead of their Champions League clash against Manchester City tonight. This session will likely be his final Champions League preparation with Sporting. During training, Amorim took a lighthearted moment to show off some ball-juggling skills and took a few shots on goal before the team moved on to a Rondo drill, where even the goalkeeper actively participated.
In a pre-match press conference, Amorim humorously remarked, “If the result is negative, expectations will drop. If we win, they’ll think the new Alex Ferguson has arrived.” His playful comment reflects the anticipation surrounding his move to Manchester United, set to take place in less than a week. Meanwhile, Ruud van Nistelrooy will oversee two more United matches before the international break, including an upcoming home fixture.
