Exclusive: Arsenal star shares his controversial moment with current Liverpool target manager

As Liverpool edges closer to appointing Ruben Amorim as Jurgen Klopp’s potential successor, the spotlight has illuminated past disputes, notably involving an Arsenal player’s contempt for the Sporting manager.

Amorim’s emergence as a frontrunner for the Reds’ managerial position follows Xabi Alonso’s withdrawal from consideration. The latest reports suggest an imminent agreement between Liverpool and the Portuguese coach. Renowned for his tactical acumen and youthful dynamism, Amorim’s potential arrival has garnered significant anticipation among Liverpool faithful.

Ruben Amorim has been a renowned manager for his abilities around the continent. However, it is obvious that one cannot please everyone. Even Jurgen Klopp is also baroqued with controversial decisions at times. Likewise, Amorim is also a man with some heated moments. One of those came with Arsenal’s on-loan defender Nuno Tavares. The 24-year-old, who is with Nottingham Forest for the season, was at Marseille last term when he became embroiled in a row with the Sporting manager.

During a Champions League game between Marseille and Sporting in 2022, there was a moment between the two. Tavares said on that,

“Obviously he didn’t want to talk about it. It doesn’t suit you, you know what I said. If I had respect for him, I just lost it in that game. Tomorrow we have another game, that’s the most important thing. Like he said, it’s over.”

The Portuguese side went on to lose 2-0 and Ruben declared the dispute as over back then only. Though, Nuno had some other intentions and carried on saying some harsh words later on as well. Nevertheless, these are very common incidents when you’re representing your club at such a high level. Noticably, another Premier League star has recently praised the 39-year old manager. Bruno Fernandes, a former Sporting man, said

“If he really takes the next step – I hope he stays at Sporting – but if he takes the next step, I think all the qualities are there to be able to succeed in English, French, or Spanish football.”
