Ruben Amorim will oversee his first transfer window since joining Manchester United in January - and he may have to battle an old rival to land his first signing

However, former scout Mick Brown, via Football Insider, suggests that United and Liverpool are two of the suitors most keen on landing the American. The pair of English giants are in the market for a new long-term left-back, and have identified Robinson as a potential option, although Fulham won't allow him to leave as soon as January.

Carlos Fernandes will be Amorim's right-hand man, as he was in Lisbon. Jorge Vital will lead the goalkeepers, Adelio Candido and Emanuel Ferro will help coach the first team, and then there is the fifth appointment - Paulo Barreira - who has something of an awkward history given his new surroundings.
