With only days left before the month of June expires, we will find out which players on loan will not have their possible purchase option pressed. On Sunday, it is confirmed that the player will be sent back to Manchester United, which was definitely not Amorim’s plan.
Chelsea announced early on that it was not an option to buy Jadon Sancho for £25 million, but it paid off to pay off the £5 million commitment. Antony has done very well at Real Betis, here the La Liga club and others are queuing up, but not for the price United are demanding. Marcus Rashford is sought after, but has a salary that no one is willing to cover. What about Tyrell Malacia?

The Dutch international was brought in by Ten Hag in 2022, but never managed to establish himself. This was the left-back who was supposed to solve the pressured situation with Luke Shaw constantly on the injured list, Malacia himself ended up being long-term injured. Back from injury last season, he should get an “easy start” and test himself against Bodø/Glimt at Old Trafford in the Europa League in November.
Easy, you said? Bodø/Glimt and Philip Zinckernagel toyed with the left-back, Amorim had nothing but to save the Dutchman from more humiliation by substituting him at half-time. In January, they were loaned to PSV, while United brought in teenager Patrick Dorgu to take charge on the left wing.
On Sunday, PSV confirmed they are sending the 25-year-old back to United, without exercising the €10 million purchase option in the lease. In other words, not impressed enough with the deliveries to Malacia.

For Ruben Amorim, Malacia’s return to the squad does not go according to plan. Then we will see if the Portuguese chooses to use the Dutchman who has never established himself at Old Trafford, or if another loan spell awaits the player with a contract until 2026.
