Manchester United players hungry to learn from Amorim, says Casemiro

Brazilian midfielder Casemiro is looking forward to working with the Dutchman’s highly rated successor

Casemiro says Manchester United’s players are eager to learn from new manager Ruben Amorim, who will arrive in Britain on Monday (November 11, 2024) to begin the challenging task of revitalizing the struggling club.

Ruud van Nistelrooy’s four-match reign as interim United boss ended with a 3-0 Premier League victory against Leicester on Sunday (November 10, 2024) — a third win in four matches since Erik ten Hag was sacked.

Brazilian midfielder Casemiro is looking forward to working with the Dutchman’s highly rated successor.

“He is very true, very loyal,” Casemiro said after the win against Leicester.

“We cannot ignore how he has changed Sporting (Lisbon). We know that Sporting won many titles, changed the club with titles, with trophies.

“He has already proved that he is a coach that has won a lot.

“I think there is going to be a good template that everyone wants to grow, everyone wants to learn. I think that is the way to first help us grow to be at the top of the table.”

Amorim’s first match will be a trip to Ipswich on November 24, meaning there will be little time to implement his ideas and expected 3-4-3 formation.

“Well, everyone can see can’t they? I only had the Liverpool game, right? The whole team was not good in that game, or this season,” said the former Real Madrid player.

“I want to continue growing, I want to continue helping my team-mates and the coach, helping Manchester United grow.”

Amorim bid farewell to Sporting in style on Sunday (November 10, 2024), securing a thrilling 4-2 comeback win at his former club Braga.

The Portuguese champions announced on Monday (November 11, 2024) that Joao Pereira would be the new head coach, stepping up from his role as reserve-team boss.
