– Number two and three on Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim’s wish list for next summer is his favourite from sporting time Viktor Gyökeres. – The 26-year-old super striker is clearly going to leave Portugal, but after Paris Saint-Germain get out the really big chequebook, the bosses at Old Trafford have been told that they have to make savings.
Inferior product at a higher price!
Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who owns 27.7% of Manchester United, is making himself very unpopular, not only by increasing the price of tickets and cutting services and staff, but also by spending the winter and spring deciding anything. While it was obvious to the whole world that Erik ten Hag would not succeed after a disastrous 2023/2024 season, they let the Dutch manager stay and ruin this season as well.
There will not be a Champions League next season and a top position in the Premier League, which means significantly less income in the future. The scope for player purchases and salaries is only getting smaller and smaller.
Manchester United simply do not have the opportunity to compete for Viktor Gyökeres without breaking the Premier League and UEFA’s financial sustainability rules.
The mood in Paris is far better. – PSG leads Ligue 1 by a good margin and manager Luis Enrique is in the process of building a team for the future without arrogant prima donnas like Neymar and Kylian Mbappe. The Spanish manager knows he needs a fantastic goalscorer and he has three names on his lists. Mohamed Salah, Victor Osimhen and Viktor Gyökeres. Three fantastic players who all know that football is a team sport.
