Ruben Amorim’s start at Manchester United has been delayed due to visa issues.

The Portuguese coach was set to officially take the reins at Old Trafford on Monday with his first game in charge against Ipswich Town on 24 November, after the international break.

Amorim’s final game in charge at Sporting Lisbon is against another of his former clubs in Braga on Sunday night. The 39-year-old is scheduled travel to the UK Monday morning.

But the Daily Telegraph report his start will now be delayed until later in the week with paperwork on his visa still to be finalised.

While he is still set to arrive in the UK tomorrow, Amorim will not be able to officially begin work at the club’s Carrington training base until those final details are rubber-stamped.
