AC Milan coach Ruben Amorim said he felt "nothing" facing former club Manchester United as he insisted he is now exactly where he wants to be. Amorim's Milan beat United 4-2 in their final preseason friendly on Saturday, giving the Italian side their first victory of the summer ahead of the start of the Serie A campaign.

The Portuguese coach endured a turbulent 14 months at Old Trafford before taking charge of Milan in June, but said there was little added emotion attached to coming up against his former side. "Since I signed with Milan, I've felt nothing about Manchester United," Amorim told Sky Sport Italia. He expressed pride in his time at United but emphasized his happiness in his current role.

Milan secured the victory thanks to goals from Samuel Chukwueze, Alphadjo Cissè, Gonçalo Ramos and Ruben Loftus-Cheek. Amorim also addressed squad issues, noting that Rafael Leão will have to "fight for his place" amidst competition from Christian Pulisic and Alexis Saelemaekers.
