Ruben Amorim is set to lead Manchester United for the first time as head coach, with his debut match against Ipswich Town on Sunday. He has expressed admiration for Mason Mount, who has struggled with injuries since joining United. Mount has only managed to start seven league matches and score one goal. However, during his time at Chelsea, he scored 27 goals, provided 22 assists, and created 227 chances in 129 appearances.
Amorim is optimistic about what Mount can contribute to the team. Since arriving in Manchester on 11 November, he has had the opportunity to get acquainted with the squad during the international break. "Mason Mount I have to tell you I love that kid. You can look in his eyes that he wants this so bad. This is the most important thing," Amorim stated at a press conference.

The English midfielder was once regarded as one of England's brightest prospects due to his impressive performances in London. However, his impact at United has been limited, creating just 10 chances in 17 matches. Amorim believes that Mount fits well into his system and has identified two positions where he can excel.
With Erik ten Hag's departure and Ruud van Nistelrooy's successful interim period, Amorim aims to continue this positive momentum. He hopes that under his guidance, both Mount and the team will experience a change in fortunes. The new coach is eager to see how Mount adapts and contributes to Manchester United's future success.
Amorim's enthusiasm for Mount is evident as he prepares for his first Premier League challenge with United. His belief in Mount's potential could be pivotal in helping the player regain his form and confidence on the pitch. As Amorim takes charge, fans are hopeful for a fresh start and improved performances from both Mount and the team overall.
