After the 2-2 draw against Tottenham on Saturday, Manchester United coach Rúben Amorim hinted at the possibility of signing a new striker in January. The game highlighted injuries to Benjamin Šeško, Harry Maguire, and Casemiro, with the Slovenian forward exiting the field due to knee pain. He will undergo tests to assess the severity of his injury.
In light of these injuries and the upcoming absence of several international players who will be participating in the Africa Cup of Nations—namely, Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo, and Noussair Mazraoui—the Portuguese manager confirmed his intent to strengthen the squad during the winter transfer window. “We need to check everything, see what happened to Ben (Šeško). Of course, we will have a problem with the AFCON, but we already knew that. You can prepare during the summer, but then many players don’t play, so managing this situation will be difficult. Let’s see when the transfer window opens if we can improve the team and fix some things,” the former Sporting CP coach explained.
