Freshly landed on the Manchester United bench, Rúben Amorim already wants to impose his mark on the English club. According to various British newspapers, the latter would soon opt for a three-way defense. A central defender trio of Yoro, Matthijs De Ligt and Lisandro Martinez should provide balance to the rearguard. However, with the possible departures of Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire, and also the current injury to Leny Yoro, the coach will have to recruit so as not to lack players. This is why Amorim wants to bring Ousmane Diomande from Sporting, according to The Sun.
“Sporting will only agree to sell Diomande if a club activates his release clause of 70 million pounds sterling (around 83 million euros, editor’s note)», Explains the media. The 20-year-old, who passed through the training center of Danish club Midtjylland, joined Sporting in 2022 for just 7.5 million euros. The defender had a great season last year, attracting the attention of Europe’s elite.
