New details have emerged in the media regarding transfer disagreements between former Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim and the club’s management during his time at Old Trafford.
According to Idman.Biz, citing the Daily Mail, the Portuguese specialist had been unhappy with the lack of backing in transfer matters even before his departure. Manchester United’s hierarchy reportedly made several decisions in favor of players who were not high on Amorim’s priority list. In particular, the club leaned toward signing Benjamin Sesko, while Amorim preferred Ollie Watkins. A similar situation arose in the goalkeeping department, where the management considered Senne Lammens, but Amorim insisted on the acquisition of Emiliano Martinez.
Amorim had also hoped for a more proactive approach from the club regarding players from Sporting, with whom he had previously worked. The list included Geovani Quenda, Ousmane Diomande, Salvador Bloppe and Morten Hjulmand, but Manchester United did not seriously enter the race for these footballers.
