Ruben Amorim, the newly appointed manager of Manchester United, has revealed that the club will not be signing any players from his former team Sporting CP during the upcoming January transfer window. However, he did express his interest in potentially bringing Pedro Goncalves to Old Trafford in the future.
Amorim, who will officially join United on Monday after managing Sporting for one final game on Sunday, addressed the rumors linking United to Sporting striker Viktor Gyokeres. He stated that while Gyokeres is a talented player, United will need to wait until next summer before making any moves for Sporting players.
When asked about Goncalves, Amorim had nothing but praise for the midfielder, saying that he is capable of playing for any team in the world. Amorim also shared that he has a personal relationship with Goncalves and believes he could thrive at any club.
As he prepares for his first press conference in England, Amorim acknowledged that he will need to carefully choose his words as Manchester United is a highly scrutinized club. However, he expressed confidence in his ability to handle the media, stating that English will not be his biggest challenge.
Overall, Amorim's statements suggest that while United may not make any immediate moves for Sporting players, they could potentially target Goncalves in the future. It will be interesting to see how things unfold once Amorim officially joins United next week.
