There are not a few big clubs aiming to coach Amorim.

He is a 39-year-old young leader who is considered a next-generation master. In the 2020-2021 season, Amorim beat Sporting Lisbon for the first time in 19 years, and in the 2021-2022 season, he also made it to the round of 16 in the UEFA Champions League for the first time since the 2008-2009 season.

Sporting Lisbon are on their way to winning the league title again this season. With 68 points from 22 wins, two draws, and two losses from 26 league games, he is one point ahead of second-place Benfica, who has played one more game. If Amorim succeeds in winning the Portuguese league title this season, he will be the first coach to lead Sporting to win the league title more than twice since Otto Gloria, who won two times in the 1960s.

Amorim has a profile that big clubs will like. Based on a 3-4-3 formation, Amorim plays aggressive soccer with stable build-up and sharp speed. His ability to communicate with the team and leaders is also considered an advantage. Although it is worrisome that he has no experience in big leagues, he has played big clubs in the league, has a lot of experience against European clubs, and has shown good performance in matches against big clubs with Sporting Lisbon as an “underdog.”

Liverpool, where coach Jurgen Klopp resigns after the end of the season, is aiming for the top target. Liverpool originally wanted manager Xavi Alonso Bayer Leverkusen, but the situation changed when Alonso confirmed that he would stay with Leverkusen.

Coach Amorim expressed his discomfort in continuing to mention Liverpool’s appointment in a recent interview, but this does not mean that he refused to go to Liverpool. There was already news that Liverpool’s leadership had contacted Amorim. Britain’s Daily Mail also reported on April 5 that “Liverpool target Juven Amorim is open to the position of England’s Premier League manager.”

Liverpool is not the only team that wants Amorim. The media said many big clubs are considering whether to appoint Amorim as their next coach next season. Within the Premier League, Chelsea, which has shown disappointing results under Mauricio Pochettino, and Manchester United, which are highly likely to consider breaking up with Erik ten Hag.

In addition, FC Barcelona, where Xavi Hernandez announced his resignation after the end of the season, and Bayern Munich, which confirmed his separation from Thomas Tuchel, could consider Amorim as a candidate.

Barcelona, however, tends not to accept outsiders as it emphasizes Barcelona DNA and Cruyfism philosophy. Munich is also likely to prefer a famous coach who is more proven on a higher level and can take control of star players than Amorim. 안전놀이터 추천
