Amorim may join the club this week, while some reports suggest the move may happen during the November international break.
Per The Athletic, Amorim was reportedly one of four managers United were assessing.
Juventus manager Max Allegri, ex-Borussia Dortmund boss Edin Terzic and Barcelona legend Xavi were all options.
Xavi is said to have been closest to the move out of those three, with chief Omar Berrada even meeting him in Spain
