Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has said that he expects players not playing regularly to ask to leave the club in January. Both Kobbie Mainoo and Joshua Zirkzee have had limited opportunities at Old Trafford this season.
According to him, he is already preparing himself for the fringe players’ transfer requests next year because he expects them to want more game time ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
Refusing to rule out the possibility of strengthening the squad in the winter window, Amorim concluded by saying that he is focused on making long-term recruitment decisions.
His words, “A lot of things can happen.
Even in our club, and you know that we have World Cup, some players are not playing, they will ask to leave, so I have to manage everything.
We want to bring players, everyone here, we want to bring players that we can see a big future in Manchester United.
We are not just buying one guy, because now we feel in December that we need this kind of player for now. No, it’s going to be …. we want to buy players that we know we are not going to change a lot of times. So that is our idea.
I don’t know what is going to happen, but of course we think about how we can improve the team, and in January the window is open, we can do something.”
WOW.
Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.
Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.
The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
