Viktor Gyökeres, Sporting CP forward, thrived under coach Ruben Amorim's system, scoring 29 league goals in his first season. Amorim led the team to its first league title in 19 years during the 2023-24 campaign and to a consecutive championship, a first in 71 years. Gyökeres was shocked by Amorim's departure from Sporting while the team was performing well, but he expressed understanding and no hard feelings. He is expected to leave Sporting CP this summer, likely moving to the Premier League.
The style of play we had under him suited me perfectly. Amorim led Sporting to their first league title in 19 years in the 2023-24 campaign.
We won two championships in a row for the first time in 71 years. It's an incredible achievement and, of course, Ruben Amorim played a big part in that.
It was a shock, I'd never seen a coach leave in the middle of the season when everything was going so well. No hard feelings.
Yes, it was surprising, but I totally understand his decision.
