Although Manchester United urgently needs reinforcements to strengthen the team, the club will leave very limited funds for the new head coach. According to The Guardian, if Amorim takes over the managerial position at Manchester United, he will not receive much transfer money either.
During this summer transfer window, Manchester United has already spent around £200 million on signing new players such as Chirikze, Jolo, de Ligt, Mazraoui, and Ugarte to bolster the squad, which has constrained the club’s budget for the winter transfer window.
Additionally, the strict Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules of the Premier League have forced Manchester United to manage its financial situation carefully. This means that if the club wants to increase spending, it must raise funds by selling existing players. Looking back at the past five transfer windows, under Ten Hag’s management, Manchester United has spent a total of about £600 million.
Currently, apart from young talents like Garnacho, Hojulund, and Menu who are considered “untouchable,” there are not many high-value stars in Manchester United’s squad available for monetization. Among them, Rashford is one of the few players who could bring in significant revenue, with a market valuation of around £60 million.
Despite this, there are indications that Amorim is highly interested in taking charge of Manchester United. However, to secure his services, an additional £8.3 million would need to be paid to Sporting Lisbon as a release fee. Therefore, for Manchester United, there is little room for maneuver in the upcoming winter transfer market.
