  • However, the 39-year-old did not offer any hint of a move to the Premier League club so that his squad is not distracted as they look to extend their perfect start to the league season when they play Estrela da Amadora on Friday.

Sporting coach Ruben Amorim refused to discuss Manchester Untied's approach for him to replace Erik ten Hag, saying on Thursday that he is only focused on the Portuguese side's next league match.
