Amorim Faces Growing Pressure at Old Trafford
The optimism surrounding Ruben Amorim’s appointment at Manchester United has dwindled after a series of inconsistent performances.
While a victory against Manchester City briefly lifted spirits, defeats to Tottenham and Bournemouth have highlighted the squad’s limitations.
Fans are demanding urgent changes, and Amorim has pledged to revamp the team starting in January.
Osimhen Emerges as Amorim’s Top Target
Victor Osimhen is seen as the ideal solution to United’s scoring struggles. A proven goal-scorer, the Nigerian striker is now a key focus for the club’s January plans.
Victor Osimhen joined Galatasaray on loan last summer after a fallout with Napoli boss Antonio Conte. Before that move, Chelsea had tried to sign the striker but failed to finalize personal terms. Napoli retains the option to recall Osimhen in January, making him available for a permanent transfer.
Manchester United are reportedly eager to secure Osimhen’s signature but may find Napoli’s 62 million-pound asking price a stumbling block, especially as they are also targeting a midfielder and left-back in January.
To fund these moves, United are open to offloading players like Marcus Rashford, who has fallen out of favor under Amorim.
The Red Devils face a crucial festive period with matches against Wolves and Newcastle as they attempt to climb from their disappointing 13th position in the Premier League table. For now, all eyes remain on whether United can secure the firepower needed to revive their season.
