Sporting Lisbon have appointed B team head coach Joao Pereira as Ruben Amorim’s replacement for the senior side.

Amorim has left the Portuguese giants to take over as Manchester United boss. His last game came on Sunday evening as Sporting came from two goals down to beat Braga 4-2

The 39-year-old is hoping to bring much of his coaching staff with him to Old Trafford. As a result, Sporting have been forced into a bold move, with Pereira stepping up from the B team.

Pereira spent three seperate spells at Sporting as a player, as well as representing Portugal at Euro 2012 and the 2014 World Cup. The former right-back moved into coaching after his retirement and has most recently been leading Sporting’s B team.
