In only a few months, sports Lisbon will lose both their manager and their sports director.
Amorim was just named the manager of Manchester United, while Viana will be the sports director of City shortly after.
Together, the two have performed admirably in the Portuguese city, assisting Sporting in taking the lead at home.
Despite having separate responsibilities in the future, Ruben Amorim is adamant that they will have a positive connection, reports Mirror.
The new United manager emphasized his goal of returning the Red Devils to its former glory and said he expected Viana to keep Man City going forward, although he made a joke about how challenging that will be given Pep Guardiola’s team’s dominance.
For more than ten years, United has been in the shadow of its neighbors, whom they formerly dominated. With Amorim being the last manager to attempt it, several managers have failed to return them to the peak.
