New Beginnings: Manchester United’s Ruben Amorim Embarks on His Journey
The Portuguese coach, Ruben Amorim, officially kicked off his tenure with Manchester United on Monday, leading his first training session with the team.
A slightly reduced squad attended the session, as several players were away on international duty. Despite this, some key players, including Kobbie Mainoo, Amad Diallo, Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, and Leny Yoro, were present and ready to work under Amorim’s guidance.
This Sunday, Amorim will take charge of his first official match as Manchester United’s manager, as they face Ipswich Town in the Premier League. With the team currently sitting 13th in the league table, Amorim has a challenging task ahead of him to improve the team’s performance and propel them back up the rankings.
Amorim replaces Erik ten Hag, who was let go following a disappointing run of results. The new manager has a significant task ahead of him to turn the team’s fortunes around and make a positive impact.
In other news, Chelsea received a significant boost ahead of their Premier League clash with Leicester City this weekend, as three key players returned to first-team training.
Cole Palmer, Levi Colwill, and Jadon Sancho were all spotted on the training ground on Monday, marking their return from injury setbacks. The trio’s comeback is a welcome relief for Chelsea, who have enjoyed a strong start to the season under new manager Enzo Maresca.
Chelsea currently sits in third place in the Premier League table, but they have faced several injury challenges in recent weeks. Malo Gusto and Romeo Lavia were forced to exit the previous match against Arsenal due to injuries, which led to their absence from international duty. Additionally, Palmer and Colwill initially played against Arsenal but later withdrew from the England national team squad due to minor injuries.
Wesley Fofana also missed international action as he continues to manage discomfort in his knee, which has been lingering since the Arsenal match.
