Income Manchester United’s manager, Ruben Amorim singles out one player that he is excited to manage, as he prepares to travel to Manchester in the next few days.
Due to the upcoming international break, the Portuguese manager will have 13 days to prepare for his first game against Ipswich Town on November 24.
In this time, he will look to impress his dynamic tactics on his new squad, which could see United playing with three centre backs.
Prior to joining, Amorim has announced that he is especially looking forward to reuniting with Manuel Ugarte.
‘All the Uruguayans I managed are incredible and that’s why I love all Uruguayans,’ he said to TNT Sports Mexico on Friday.
‘Ugarte is a very talented boy, and has a lot of room to grow. I am very happy to know that I have him back at Manchester United!’
The two worked together at Sporting CP from 2021 to 2023, before Ugarte joined PSG last year.
Despite his positive words, Amorim has previously said that the Uruguayan did not fit his system perfectly, which led to his sale in 2023.
Meanwhile the Portuguese manager will be looking to get the best out of Ugarte, with Casemiro, Kobbie Mainoo and Christian Eriksen all in contention for the same position in the starting Lineup
