Amorim reveals the Manchester United lesson he has brought to Milan

Amorim reveals the Manchester United lesson he has brought to Milan Ruben Amorim says his time at Manchester United taught him how much weight every decision carries at a global club, and he believes his whole career has been leading him to Milan. With quotes via MilanNews24 , the Portuguese coach was speaking to DAZN as the Rossoneri prepare to resume their Serie A campaign at Sassuolo. Nine matches in under a month lie ahead, three of them in the Europa League. Amorim took over in the summer after spells at Sporting, where he won two league titles, and at Old Trafford. He sees more of the former in his new job. “The experience we’ve built up at other clubs helps us with every challenge, or new challenge. Here it’s more similar to Portugal. It’s a different kind of pressure, because people outside the club experience the team really passionately. That’s similar to Portugal, and I’m used to living like that. In England it’s a bit different, obviously. Manchester United are a global club just like Milan, so every single thing you do carries weight, and that has helped me try to conduct myself in the best way here at Milan. In my head, everything I’ve experienced in my career was to reach this point, at this very special club, to be ready to help it.” MILAN, ITALY – AUGUST 28: Goncalo Ramos of AC Milan celebrates scoring his team’s first goal during the Serie A match between AC Milan and Venezia FC at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on August 28, 2026 in Milan, Italy.

Amorim also defended Gonçalo Ramos, insisting the goals will come for the striker who was signed in the summer. “I’m not going to say Ramos should run less. I’ll never say that about a player. First of all, the key thing is that we’re scoring, and that’s what matters most. I know full well that a striker needs to score goals, and he will score. He’s working hard, and if we’re scoring, it’s also thanks to Gonçalo Ramos.” ITALY – SEPTEMBER 20: Ruben Amorim, Manager of AC Milan, interacts with Christian Pulisic of AC Milan as he is substituted off during the Serie A match between AC Milan and US Lecce at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on September 20, 2026 in Italy.

I’m really happy to be here, and I feel a great responsibility to help this club get back to where it belongs.”
