FOR SALE: Ruben Amorim not IMPRESSED with seven Man United’s first-team players this season, put them all for sale. AMONG THEM, THERE ARE UNEXPECTED NAMES.
Rúben Amorim Begins Manchester United Overhaul, Lists Seven First-Team Players for Sale
New Manchester United boss Rúben Amorim is wasting no time making his mark at Old Trafford. In his first major move since being confirmed as manager, Amorim has reportedly put seven senior players on the transfer list — a bold step that’s already sending ripples through the squad.
Speaking in a no-nonsense press conference, the Portuguese coach made his expectations crystal clear:
> “I’ve evaluated the team closely. Some players simply don’t meet the standards we need to move this club forward,” he stated.
Shock Names Included in Amorim’s Transfer List
Though he didn’t name names publicly, behind-the-scenes sources have revealed the identities of several players now deemed surplus to requirements — and the list includes both expected and surprising choices:
Antony – Despite his big-money move under Ten Hag, the winger has struggled for consistency and hasn’t delivered in key moments.
Jadon Sancho – Even with his loan spell at Borussia Dortmund, Amorim reportedly has no interest in bringing the Englishman back into the fold.
Harry Maguire – Once the team’s captain, Maguire has seen his influence fade and could be set for a permanent departure.
Scott McTominay – Often relied upon in the past, the midfielder is now seen as dispensable amid plans for a tactical midfield reset.
Victor Lindelöf – Another defensive casualty, with Amorim reportedly targeting more mobile, aggressive center-backs.
Christian Eriksen – At 32, the veteran playmaker’s time appears up as the club aims for a younger, more energetic midfield.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka – Despite his defensive reliability, Amorim reportedly sees him as incompatible with his high-press, attack-minded full-back system.
> “Rebuilding a competitive squad means making tough choices,” Amorim added. “We want players who play with urgency, precision, and modern football intelligence.”
A New Era at Old Trafford
Amorim’s decisions signal a clear shift: no player is untouchable, and reputation alone won’t earn a place in the team. His focus is on intensity, adaptability, and a forward-thinking football philosophy.
> “Every player will have to earn their place. This club is moving in a new direction, and we need everyone pulling in the same direction,” he said.
As Manchester United prepares for a new chapter under Amorim, fans can expect a squad built for speed, structure, and silverware — even if that mea
ns saying goodbye to some familiar faces.
