Ruben Amorim has said he doesn't feel "the weight" of Manchester United's history as he prepares to start his reign as the club's new head coach. Amorim arrived in Manchester on Monday after being appointed as Erik ten Hag's successor on a two-and-a-half year contract.

A new era is beginning at Manchester United with former Braga and Sporting CP boss Ruben Amorim officially installed as head coach. He'll take charge of his first match against Ipswich Town, but who is Ruben Amorim and what makes him tick?

Manchester United held talks with a host of managers over the summer – the Red Devils negotiated with Thomas Tuchel as well as Roberto de Zerbi, Thomas Frank, Marco Silva and more – but quickly shifted their focus to Ruben Amorim once Erik ten Hag’s position became untenable.
