Amorim also has past managerial experience with Casa Pia and Braga, to whom Sporting paid a significant fee to release him from his contract in 2020.
Dalot appreciates United is another step entirely as Amorim leaves his homeland for the first time in his coaching career, but highlights that everyone will be pulling in the same direction to aid our new appointment in his mission.
“It’s obviously different. He comes from a big club in Portugal. I will say that he almost quadruples the amount of exposure, the intensity, the pressure [here], but in Sporting he was more than able to deal with it.
“We are here obviously and we’re going to be a team. Players, staff, managers, board, directors: we’re going to be a team.
“We have to work with each other, I’m sure we will help him in some way and he will help us back.”
