Manchester United have been scouring Europe for reinforcements to strengthen Ruben Amorim’s side for next season.
The Red Devils have had a shocking season, failing to fight their way into the top half of the Premier League table.
United’s consistent injuries have been a huge factor in this, with Amorim trying to shape the squad from the 4-2-3-1 formation they were assembled for to 3-4-3.
Now, the summer transfer window is United’s next opportunity to bring in players who already fit with Amorim’s style of play.
The Red Devil’s recruitment team have already identified a prime target in the form of Francisco Trincao.

Manchester United “desperate” to sign Francisco Trincao
The Sun has reported that United have made the Sporting CP winger one of their key target’s with Amorim “desperate” to sign him.
However, there may be some complications affecting any movement for the winger.
United’s financial hardships are well known, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe claiming that without his involvement, the club would be bust by Christmas.
As such, a big money move is out of the question unless United make some major sales and qualifies for the Champions League by winning the Europa League.
Whilst Sporting signed Trincao for £6 million from Barcelona in 2023, the LaLiga giants included a 50% sell-on clause and a buy-back clause of £20.8 million.
With his contract running through to summer 2026, this summer is the last chance Sporting will have to sell the star without extending his contract.
However, the club are reportedly still holding out on offers in the realms of his release clause which stands at £66.5 million.
