Amorim can potentially depart Sporting for as little as €15 million (£13m/$16m) when the release clause becomes active in the summer. This fee decreases to €10m (£8.5m/$10.5m) the following season.
On a related note, Xabi Alonso, previously considered a strong contender for the Liverpool job, recently announced his decision to remain with Bayer Leverkusen.
