Bruno Guimaraes is being seen as an option to add some more depth to Ruben Amorim’s midfield.
Amorim pushes board to make move for Bruno Guimaraes
Manchester United have reportedly opened talks for a move to sign Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United this summer. Ruben Amorim, the manager, is prepared to make some changes in midfield at Old Trafford. Additionally, he has asked the club to go for the Brazilian playmaker in the June window.
Alongside Crystal Palace’s rising star Adam Wharton, Guimaraes tops Utd’s wishlist as they aim to rebuild after a poor campaign.
Manchester Utd’s only hope of seeing Champions League football next term is winning the Europa League this year.
The heat is on. Amorim likes Newcastle’s Bruno for his creativity and leadership on the pitch. Also, Christian Eriksen will more than likely leave in this summer. Meanwhile, Casemiro’s future is uncertain too.
Tough task ahead as United face competition for their targets
Guimaraes and Wharton won’t be easy to get as things stand. Despite their interest, signing the Newcastle star is far from easy. The Magpies are keen to keep the Brazilian. In addition, they are even planning to offer a new deal to keep a hold on him.
In addition, Barcelona are also in the race. Amorim’s side know they’ll need to offer out a big fee to even open talks. The story is similar with Wharton. He is also a United’s key target in recent months.
Interestingly, the Toons see Wharton as a possible replacement if Guimaraes ends up leaving. The Red Devils have two big names on the radar and serious competition from across Europe as well.
Utd’s midfield revamp will take a lot of work for sure. Also, they will need even more cash to pull off these moves. Amorim has made his thoughts clear. But, United will need to act fast to sign their top targets.
