Vasco Da Gama List Ruben Amorim Among Candidates for Head Coach
Brazilian reports name him on a shortlist, with Artur Jorge’s release clause complicating Vasco’s preferred move.
Overview
- VDG-Cast, as relayed by Yahoo Sports and Goal, reports that Vasco have identified Ruben Amorim as a potential replacement for the recently dismissed Fernando Diniz.
- The club’s priority is reported to be Artur Jorge, though a complex release clause is cited as an obstacle to a swift agreement.
- Vasco are described as willing to offer a high salary as they seek a quick appointment to stabilise results.
- Amorim is a free agent after leaving Manchester United in early January following a 14‑month tenure that included a Europa League final and a 63‑match record of 25 wins, 15 draws and 23 defeats.
- Reports emphasise that no formal approach or agreement has been confirmed, and separate speculation continues to link Amorim with a possible return to Europe, including Benfica.
