Man Utd have a lot of work to do to reinforce the squad and build a winning project but before they make any signings, they will have to make room for them by selling some of the deadwood who are not performing for the team.
The Red Devils under the Portuguese tactician are looking to build an identity and the easiest way to catalyze the whole process for Amorim is to sign players that he has already worked in the past and those who understand his system.

Of course, when it comes to Sporting CP, one of the names that is on every top European club’s looks is Viktor Gyokeres.
The Swedish striker had a frankly unbelievable 2024 and has started 2025 at a very high level, right from where he left off.
As per Portuguese source, Record, Man Utd are ‘very interested’ in signing the talented striker who is also a Barcelona target, with the English club hoping for Ruben Amorim to ‘put pressure’ and tug on his heartstrings to convince him to come to Old Trafford.
Interest from Bayern Munich is also gaining momentum behind the scenes and ultimately, it could come down to a three-way battle between the clubs maybe next summer as Gyokeres continues to build up towards a big move.
One big thing that won’t go in favor of Man Utd is the fact that based on current form, they might not play European football, let alone Champions League football next season and Gyokeres might not see this the right step in his career.
It remains to be seen if Amorim can convince Gyokeres to sign for Man Utd and how this particular transfer saga pans out.
The Swede has so far scored 31 goals in just 29 appearances in all competitions for the Lions this term and therefore, it is not surprising why top clubs are after him.
Do you think Amorim can beat Barca and Bayern in the race to sign Gyokeres for Man Utd.
