On Sunday, multiple major Portuguese outlets claimed that Manchester United were going to try and hijack Arsenal’s stalling deal for Gyökeres. The Red Devils were even described as “quite close” to striking an agreement with Sporting CP, who have thus far failed to find common ground with the Gunners.

Randal Kolo Muani is the latest name linked with a move to Old Trafford. Now back at Paris Saint-Germain after his loan spell from Juventus, Foot Mercato have reported that United are weighing up an offer. Benjamin Sesko is another striker on the list of strikers Amorim is said to like.
