From Championship to Man United? Amorim eyes Sunderland talent
The challenges of completing multi-million deals are prompting Manchester United to turn their attention to young but promising footballers. And Ruben Amorim is ready to follow this path.
Details: According to Caught Offside, Manchester United's head coach has given the green light for the transfer of Sunderland's 17-year-old attacking midfielder Chris Rigg. The "Red Devils" consider Rigg a "necessary" talent and have already begun working on sealing the deal.
However, Manchester United will have to withstand competition from Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Brighton, who are also tracking the talent. How much Sunderland will demand for their star remains unknown.
Reminder: Previously, former Southampton manager Graeme Souness slammed Man United's management for selling Scott McTominay.
