A charismatic head coach, Amorim had landed huge links with the likes of both Liverpool and even held brief talks to replace David Moyes at West Ham United earlier in the summer, before conceding he considered following current Sporting director and former Newcastle midfielder, Hugo Viana to Manchester City \u2013 in the eventuality that Pep Guardiola left the dugout at the end of this season as speculated<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
