“Manchester United can confirm that Ruud van Nistelrooy has left the club,” a United statement said. After returning in the summer, Ruud has served as the team’s interim head coach for the last four games.

“Ruud is a legend of Manchester United and always will be.

“We appreciate his contribution and the manner in which he has carried out his duties during his tenure with the club. At Old Trafford, he will always be quite welcome.

When Amorim arrived at United’s Carrington training site to begin a job he acknowledges will be “difficult,” he was welcomed by the club’s top officials.

After a thrilling 4-2 victory over Braga the day before, he flew into Manchester and went directly to Carrington, where he was greeted by chief executive Omar Berrada, sporting director Dan Ashworth, and technical director Jason Wilcox outside the men’s first-team building.He was supposed to meet with important employees, but until his work permit is approved, he cannot conduct coaching sessions.

“I’m not fooling myself; it’s going to be tough. When asked about his new position during his farewell Sporting press conference, Amorim responded, “But it’s what it has to be.”

Everyone is eager to learn from the new manager, according to United midfielder Casemiro, who has been impressed by Amorim’s transformational impact at the Portuguese club.

“Everyone talks so highly of him, but we haven’t spoken,” the 39-year-old Brazil midfielder, who has a contract through 2027, stated.

Above all, he is incredibly devoted and truthful. We can’t deny his impact on Sporting. We am aware that Sporting revolutionized the club with titles and trophies after winning numerous titles.

He has already demonstrated that he is a successful coach.

Everyone will desire to learn and progress, thus I believe there will be a good template. That, in my opinion, is how we may start to get to the top of the table.

Casemiro responded, “Of course we have to keep improving,” when asked what level United could achieve. Our players are capable of doing it.

“We must continue to develop. We have a positive dynamic. The international break is approaching, followed by the season’s most crucial stretch, when there are numerous games and every player is needed.

Amorim is permitted to attend meetings at United’s training facility while awaiting a visa, and on Monday he had a conversation with Van Nistelrooy.

The well-liked former striker, who signed a contract to stay at Old Trafford until 2026, has made no secret of his wish to be a member of Amorim’s revamped squad.On Van Nistelrooy’s unbeaten reign as interim boss, Casemiro said: “I honestly enjoyed it a lot.

“Everyone in Madrid that I had asked before said he was a great person so I was not surprised.

“From minute one he spoke to us and told us to always enjoy it, always to be happy always, to take advantage of the moment to play for Manchester. Don’t we forget a lot?

“But he was a legend at Manchester United, he was a legend at Madrid. He is a number-nine legend. It was enjoyable. Sharing the moment with him was a delight.

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

Casemiro is one of the few without international football after his form began to drop last season, with his calamitous display in September’s 3-0 home defeat to Liverpool the nadir.

But the 32-year-old’s performances have since picked up and he pointed to that low when asked about his form.

“Well, isn’t it evident to all? I only had the Liverpool game, right? The whole team was not good in that game or this season,” Casemiro said.

“This match, but individually, of course when the goals are missed, of course it ends up hurting the team more, but I think it’s been a good season for me.

“I want to continue growing, I want to continue helping my team-mates and the coach, helping Manchester United grow and well, everyone knows what my job is.”
