On Friday, Manchester United declared that Amorim would take over as head coach following an agreement with Sporting to pay €11 million (£9.2 million). Amorim will stay at Sporting until he formally joins the Red Devils on November 11th, even though he was named Man United’s new manager.
Before Sporting defeated Estrela Amadora 5-1 at the Estadio Jose Alvalade on Friday night, Amorim was given a standing ovation.
But a poster outside the stadium that said, “Amorim, this is no longer your home, thank you!!” also featured the Sporting manager.
The 39-year-old is currently getting ready for his last home match as Sporting’s manager, as his team will play Manchester City in the Champions League on Tuesday.

Despite accepting a position with “one of the best clubs in the world,” Amorim acknowledged ahead of the competition that it had been a week filled with conflicting feelings.
“[It’s been] very tough,” Amorim told TNT Sports. “The worst and best week of my life. I don’t have another way to explain.
“Very tough because I’m leaving because I’m leaving a very good place but I’m going to one of the best clubs in the world so it has been very tough but it is what it is.”
