Sporting Lisbon manager Ruben Amorim responds to Man United links, amid reports he is being lined up as a potential replacement for Erik ten Hag following the Red Devils' miserable start to the season

Sporting Lisbon boss Ruben Amorim has responded to speculation that he could become Manchester United's next manager.

United have endured a torrid start to the season under Erik ten Hag, losing eight of their 15 matches, and they have slumped to consecutive 3-0 losses at home to Manchester City and Newcastle this week.

Ten Hag is under pressure to turn things around quickly, and it has been reported that Amorim and Zinedine Zidane have been lined up as potential replacements for the Dutchman if the club's current plight continues.
