He plays even better than Mbappe. He is the reason we are doing so much better at Sporting this season. Many clubs might soon sigh him but we need to secure his move now against next season”-BREAKING NEWS as Rúben Amorim plans to secure an early move for his 17 years old Sporting wounder kid who plays exactly like Kylian Mbappe.
Manchester United are reportedly working on a deal to sign Sporting CP’s rising star Geovany Quenda, with intentions to allow him to remain with his current club until the end of the season.
Since Erik ten Hag took charge, Manchester United has shown a trend of recruiting players connected to Ajax. Now, with Ruben Amorim at the helm, speculation has grown about United possibly targeting Sporting CP talents. Among the rumored players, striker Viktor Gyökeres has garnered significant interest.
Although Amorim has dismissed the idea of raiding his former team during the January transfer window, he hasn’t entirely ruled out pursuing Sporting players in the future.
United’s Interest in Quenda
According to Portuguese outlet A BOLA, Manchester United is eager to act quickly to secure Quenda, aiming to finalize a deal that would bring the 17-year-old to Old Trafford next summer.
Quenda has been impressive under Amorim’s guidance, demonstrating his versatility by excelling as both a right wing-back and a right winger. This season, he has contributed four goals across 18 appearances in various competitions.
One of his standout moments came during Sporting’s 4-1 Champions League victory against Manchester City, where his skill and adaptability earned widespread acclaim.
Contract and Transfer Details
Quenda’s current contract with Sporting runs until June 2027 and includes a €100 million release clause. While Sporting views him as a valuable asset and a potential record-breaking sale, Manchester United is reportedly preparing an initial offer of around €40 million.
Amorim holds Quenda in high regard and sees him as a promising option for United’s right flank. However, United’s interest in the player predates Amorim’s appointment, reflecting the club’s long-standing focus on his development.
This move highlights Manchester United’s commitment to nurturing young talent and building a strong squad under th
