AC Milan hires former Manchester United coach Rúben Amorim
MILAN: AC Milan hired Rúben Amorim on Tuesday, five months after he was fired by Manchester United — with the Portuguese coach set to face his old club in one of his first matches. Amorim was regarded as one of the top emerging coaches in Europe before his reputation took a hit in the Premier League. Milan did not announce the length of his contract but Italian media reports he has signed a three-year deal, worth 3.5 million euros ($4 million) a season plus bonuses. “We have tracked Rúben for years and his Sporting tenure is extremely impressive and reflects the style of play that we are looking for,” said Gerry Cardinale, the managing partner of Milan’s American owners, RedBird.
