Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim is reportedly set to take his first training session at the club early next week.
Amorim arrived at United on Monday, to officially assume his role as the Red Devils’ next boss.
A day later, he was pictured greeting some of his United players including Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, Kobbie Mainoo, Leny Yoro and Toby Collyer.
When he leads United out at Portman Road to face Ipswich Town on November 24, he will become the club’s sixth permanent manager since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013.
Amorim replaces Erik ten Hag who was sacked after two-and-a-half years following United’s worst-ever start to a Premier League season that culminated in a 2-1 defeat at the hands of West Ham.
It’s understood that Amorim has yet to receive his visa and so, he cannot get on the grass before this crucial document is issued.
However, it’s only a matter of time until he has obtained his visa.
In fact, according to the reliable Ben Jacobs, Amorim’s visa will have arrived by Monday.
Jacobs wrote on X, “Ruben Amorim is due to take Manchester United training for the first time on Monday, by which time his visa is expected to have arrived.”
“Manchester United will announce the full coaching staff when everyone’s work permit is sorted. No rush due to the international break.”
Earlier today, United confirmed that Amorim visited Old Trafford for the first time.
He met fans and also shared a moment with United Women’s no.7 Ella Toone. Pictures of Amorim at the Theatre of Dreams can be seen below.
When he toured the press conference room, Amorim said, “This is funny. I’ve watched this room so many times.”
