Man United have been rocked by the loss of Lisandro Martinez to a long-term injury, but his absence could become another man's opportunity.

Ruben Amorim claimed he wouldn't sign his former Sporting Lisbon players in January - and stuck to his word - but is now eyeing a raid on the Portuguese champions come the summer

Ruben Amorim kept his previous promise of not poaching stars from Sporting to strengthen Manchester United in the January transfer window despite his undeniable interest. However, the Red Devils boss is reportedly laying plans for a summer siege to capture some of his old stars.

Manchester United's top target is off the table. Now, Ruben Amorim must rethink his transfer plans. Who will he sign next?

Diogo Dalot says the level of support Manchester United receive even when they are doing badly surprised manager Ruben Amorim who has reminded players how lucky they are to have it. It has been a very difficult time for Amorim since he took over as Red Devils boss, with his side languishing down in 13th in the Premier League table.

Christian Eriksen has been told to leave Manchester United by Danish compatriot Peter Schmeichel after falling out of favour under Ruben Amorim. The 32-year playmaker is widely expected to depart once his contract expires at the end of the season amid no talk of an extension.

And after his latest indifferent display against Leicester in the FA Cup, former Chelsea striker Tony Cascarino has warned Amorim that he is hurting Mainoo by not letting him play consistently in his most natural position. ‘When he [Mainoo] first came into the Man United team, I thought he really did it at a breeze,’ he told talkSPORT.
