Since his arrival, Ruben Amorim has had to experiment with different centre-back pairings, given several key injuries plaguing his defensive options.
With Leny Yoro and Lisandro Martínez both sidelined, and Ayden Heaven also out with injury, Amorim has been forced to adjust.
The return of Harry Maguire to the team has been inconsistent due to injury concerns, further complicating the situation.
Despite these challenges, Amorim’s adaptability has kept United’s defence competitive, showcasing his tactical flexibility during a tough season.
Amidst these struggles, a significant transfer story is making the rounds.
Thursday’s edition of A Bola has sparked new rumours about the future of Goncalo Inacio, with Manchester United again being linked to the central defender.
Sporting CP is reportedly holding out for €45 million for Goncalo Inacio, who has been in strong form this season.
Borussia Dortmund had previously expressed interest during the January transfer window but failed to agree on a deal.

The report from A Bola makes it clear that Manchester United is the only Premier League club currently interested in Inacio.
The link between the two parties is strengthened by Amorim’s former role in nurturing Inacio’s talent, which has made the defender a familiar name to United’s scouting team.
Manchester United has been keeping a close eye on Inacio for some time, and there have been multiple instances where a transfer seemed imminent.
The report also highlights that Goncalo Inacio is represented by Miguel Pinho, Bruno Fernandes’ agent, further adding to the speculation.
A Bola notes that Sporting is prepared to sell Inacio this summer, with the €45 million price tag on the defender serving as a clear indication of their asking price.
While there is no definitive confirmation that Manchester United is actively pursuing the player, the ongoing interest and the strong links to Amorim suggest that this may be a transfer worth watching closely.
