Ruben Amorim has made a promise to the Manchester United fans with an announcement of his arrival seemingly imminent.

Amorim, 39, was speaking on Thursday afternoon when he discussed the current situation.

The Portuguese is thought to be close to completing a switch to Old Trafford.

However, United fans may need to wait a little longer until the news is confirmed by the club.

"I know they [journalists] made a trip to come here to talk about this, and it's natural, but we'll leave that for the end of the game," he said in a press conference.

Amorim will coach his side during tomorrow's league fixture against Estrela Amadora.

"At the end of the game I'll talk about all these issues," said Amorim.

“It is a negotiation between two clubs," he explained.

"It is never easy - even with the clauses.

"We will have clarification after the game. It will be very clear. One more day and then we will have the decision made.”

"Now I want the team to focus and so do I," Amorim told reporters.

"I promise I'll talk at the end of the game and everything will be clearer. By talking now, it's just another destabilisation for the squad. Now the focus is on the game."

Despite United's approaches, Amorim has remained professional, staying focused on helping his Sporting side perform.

He led his side to a convincing 3-1 victory against Nacional in the Taca da Liga on Tuesday evening.

Tomorrow night, the Lisbon-based side can continue their perfect league record with a win, which would take them to the impressive feat of ten wins in tens games so far this term.

Sporting are expected to announce today that they have reached an agreement with United, but it is likely that it will be confirmed in the official announcement that the 39-year-old will remain in charge of the Primeira Liga side for their next three games according to The Telegraph - which includes a home match against Manchester City in the Champions League on November 5.

If this is the case, the former Benfica player will join United after the November international break, which starts on November 14.

His first match in charge could be the away trip to Ipswich Town on November 24.
