Sporting CP president Frederico Varandas remains confident in persuading Ruben Amorim to stay in Lisbon for the upcoming season, despite ongoing speculation linking him with Liverpool. 

Amorim, who is seen as the leading candidate to succeed Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool, has yet to finalize any deal. Varandas, as reported by Portuguese outlet O Jogo (via Bola na Rede), appears unfazed by Liverpool's interest, emphasizing that Sporting has not even started searching for a new head coach. 

With Sporting still pursuing a domestic double, Varandas believes in the club's exciting project and its potential to retain Amorim's services. 

He cites Sporting's anticipated participation in the 2024/25 Champions League and the promise of strengthening the squad as compelling reasons to resist Liverpool's advances.
