With Sporting CP boss Ruben Amorim the heavy favourite to replace Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool, former Aston Villa striker Gabby Agbonlahor explained how he and the Portuguese gaffer got their coaching badges at the same time.
“My number two is Carlos Fernandes, he’s been my right-hand man right from day one. He’ll be a much better coach than me. I often say if I become Bobby Robson, then he’ll be my Mourinho .”
Amorim’s ascent has been as sharp as fathombly possible; appointed as Braga reserve boss in September 2019, it was just four months before the former Portugal midfielder was given the first team job, and began with a 7-1 destruction of Belenenses. One of them had seen enough, with Sporting CP handing Amorim a contract featuring a £13million release clause, by far the biggest in the history of Portuguese football, just four months into his professional career.
