Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim marked his 40th birthday alongside his wife, Maria Joao Diogo, reports Daily Mail. The Portuguese manager took a brief break from his demanding schedule at United to unwind and celebrate the occasion.
Amorim and his wife dined at the popular restaurant Cibo, located in Wilmslow, Cheshire. As they left the venue, paparazzi captured them on the street.
Notably, Cibo was a favorite restaurant of another United manager, the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson. The Scotsman was a frequent visitor to the establishment in past years.
However, Amorim is still far from matching the success of the Red Devils icon. His tenure at the club has been anything but easy, something he acknowledged himself when responding to a birthday greeting from BBC Sport, joking that after two months at United, he feels not 40, but 50.
So far, the Portuguese coach has struggled to restore stability and positive results to the Manchester club. Amorim has lost 7 of his 17 matches in charge and has overseen the team’s worst home league record in 131 years.
