Man Utd out to steal Pep Guardiola's replacement? Red Devils make Ruben Amorim enquiries as possible Erik ten Hag successor despite Man City links

<p>According to journalist <a href="https://x.com/Plettigoal/status/1847313442253754877" target="_blank">Florian Plettenberg</a>, Sporting manager Amorim is being considered as a possible replacement for Erik ten Hag at United if the Dutchman is sacked. He adds the Red Devils have put out the feelers for the 39-year-old, but are still sticking with Ten Hag for now. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/pep-guardiola-man-city-man-utd-target-ruben-amorim-sporting-lisbon/blt239fed2052ba7d3f" target="_blank">City are also monitoring Amorim's situation</a>, with Guardiola <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/pep-guardiola-promises-future-decision-insists-man-city-have-options-to-replace-him/blt70a8e3539cc42de7" target="_blank">out of contract next summer</a>.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Plettenberg adds Amorim is not planning to leave the Portuguese side this season but his contract - which runs until 2026 - includes a release clause next summer. It seems both Manchester club are keeping tabs on the young manager's situation. Replacing Guardiola or Ten Hag will be a huge task, for different reasons.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Amorim, who was <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ruben-amorim-sporting-cp-liverpool-jurgen-klopp-liga-nos/blt68f77c182a812b2f" target="_blank">linked with the Liverpool job earlier this year</a> before Arne Slot succeeded Jurgen Klopp at Anfield, has been in charge at Sporting since March 2020. In that time he has chalked up a 71.49 per cent win record to guide the club to two Primeira Liga and two Taca da Liga successes.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Aside from the speculation about his future, Amorim's Sporting side, who sit top of the Portuguese top-flight with a perfect record, return to Champions League action on Tuesday night away to Sturm Graz.</p>
