Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is set for a challenging summer, with reports suggesting he will have just £20 million to spend on new signings. With the squad in need of significant reinforcements, the Portuguese coach may be forced to rely on player sales to fund any major moves.
According to sources, United’s financial restrictions stem from issues with the Premier League’s Profit & Sustainability Rules (PSR). The club’s limited budget means offloading players will be crucial, raising concerns over the futures of highly-rated youngsters Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho.
Amorim acknowledged the situation but remained focused on his immediate job. “We know with the moment of the club, I have to understand all of these problems,” he said. “You knew the rules of fair play, we have a problem there at the moment but that cannot influence the way I coach the team.”
United’s financial challenges add further uncertainty to a club already in transition. Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s minority takeover has sparked optimism, but these constraints could hinder efforts to reshape the squad. With rivals expected to spend big, United’s ability to remain competitive will depend on smart recruitment and tough decisions in the transfer market.
For Amorim, the priority is clear that is get the best out of his current squad while navigating the financial constraints. But with United needing reinforcements, the summer window could see difficult choices being made.
