Here's who Ruben Amorim is set to appoint to his Manchester United staff

6 hours ago 1

Manchester United fans are bracing for big changes as Ruben Amorim takes charge of the team.

The 39-year-old head coach, known for his success at Sporting CP, is set to bring a fresh approach — and a trusted backroom staff to Old Trafford.

Reports suggest that five key staff members will join Amorim, including coaches Carlos Fernandes, Adelio Candido, and Emanuel Ferro, alongside goalkeeping coach Jorge Vital and sports scientist Paulo Barreira.

Each member has worked closely with Amorim in the past, and their arrival signals a new direction for the Red Devils.

Amorim himself is still waiting for his visa to begin training sessions at Carrington, but Manchester United expects the process to be completed by Monday.

With the club’s next Premier League match fast approaching, the team is eager to hit the ground running under their new leader.

Who are the new faces set to be appointed by Ruben Amorim?

Carlos Fernandes, who has been by Amorim’s side from the start, will reportedly take on a key role.

At just 29, Fernandes is highly regarded by Amorim, who once compared their partnership to that of Bobby Robson and Jose Mourinho.

Adelio Candido and Emanuel Ferro, both familiar faces from Amorim’s stints at Casa Pia, Braga, and Sporting, are also tipped to join the setup.

Goalkeeping coach Jorge Vital and sports scientist Paulo Barreira round out the group being linked, bringing a wealth of expertise to United's training ground.

The changes come as part of a larger overhaul.

Earlier this week, Manchester United confirmed the departures of several staff members, including Ruud van Nistelrooy and Rene Hake.

However, key figures like Darren Fletcher and Craig Mawson will remain.

What’s next for Man United?

Amorim’s reign begins with a challenge as Manchester United faces Ipswich Town on November 24.

With many players still away on international duty, Amorim and his team will have limited time to prepare.

Fans are hopeful that the new coaching staff will inject fresh energy into the squad and help steer the Red Devils back to their winning ways.

All eyes are on Old Trafford as a new chapter begins.
