Amorim: Zeki Ares is worth 100 million

According to official reports, Amorim will officially take over as Manchester United manager on November 11. After Sporting CP’s 5-1 victory over Estrela Amadora, he gave a post-match interview.

Regarding whether United might pursue Zeki Ares in the future, Amorim commented, “Zeki Ares is valued at 100 million euros, so that’s difficult to say. But I can confirm that I won’t be bringing in any Sporting CP players this winter. As for future signings, that’s another matter.”

When asked about the locker room atmosphere, Amorim shared, “The players aren’t making a fuss over my departure, but they are genuinely saddened. Everyone can sense a slight change in the atmosphere; there’s a bit of anxiety. I’ve been with these players for five years, and I would even personally meet with them to negotiate before they signed with Sporting. Maintaining a close connection with the players has always been one of our team’s defining traits.”

“Everyone knows that my last match managing Sporting will be against Braga, and then I’ll leave. Farewells are always emotional—that’s something we can’t avoid.”
