Sporting said in a statement that United will pay the Portuguese club €11 million ($11.95M) as a release fee to hire Amorim as first-team coach.

English soccer giants Manchester United on Friday confirmed the appointment of Ruben Amorim as their new manager, shortly after sacking Erik ten Hag. In a statement on the club's website, Manchester United said they were "delighted" to welcome the 39-year-old Portuguese manager as head coach, subject to visa requirements. "Rúben is one of the most exciting and highly rated young coaches in European football," Manchester United said in the statement. By stark contrast, Manchester United have endured a dreadful start to their Premier League campaign. Shares of Manchester United, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, were up 1.8% in pre-market trading.

ESPN President Jimmy Pitaro , who I spoke with this week in an exclusive interview, doesn't shy away from that. Other media companies buy sports rights too, but ESPN buys more, and its entire existence is predicated on it. Yes, ESPN+ has existed since 2018, but ESPN+ has always been ESPN Lite, as I discussed in a CNBC documentary we put out earlier this year. "If that deal delivers for us in terms of growing our ratings, growing our reach – we got Flagship rights.

☆ Arne Slot to Liverpool: Compensation deal agreed for Feyenoord boss to be Jurgen Klopp's successor

Head coach Arne Slot of Feyenoord looks on after the Dutch Eredivisie match between Go Ahead Eagles and Feyenoord at De Adelaarshorst on April 25, 2024 in Deventer, Netherlands. Liverpool and Feyenoord have reached an agreement in principle over a compensation package for Arne Slot to become Jurgen Klopp's successor. The compensation package is £7.7m, plus £1.7m in add-ons. Sporting coach Ruben Amorim had made Liverpool's shortlist, and despite the external noise over him, the club always maintained he was not the leading or preferred option. Suggestions that financial reasons were behind Amorim not being the frontrunner for the Anfield job has been termed fiction.

They will meet Sevilla in the semi-finals on May 11 and 18 after the Spanish side knocked out Manchester United 5-2 on aggregate. Juventus took an early lead through Rabiot who netted from close range after nine minutes following a corner. Just before halftime, Sporting winger Nuno Santos tried to square the ball inside the box coming from the left but Juve defender Gleison Bremer blocked the threat right in front of the diving Szczesny. After the break Sporting pressed with confidence for possession but they squandered three more opportunities to level the match.
