Manchester United trio who are not in Ruben Amorim’s plans offered to Fenerbahce | OneFootball

With Manchester United languishing in 14th position in the Premier League table, head coach Ruben Amorim is desperate for reinforcements as he seeks to get the club out of this mess.

But owing to their summer transfer splurge as well as mid-season payoffs to both former boss Erik ten Hag and Sporting Lisbon, the club has very little PSR wriggle room.

As a result, only player sales can allow INEOS to enter the market and owing to the team’s poor form, almost all of their underperforming, overpaid stars are on the market.

As revealed by Turkish outlet Fanatik, intermediaries have offered three United stars to Fenerbahce, who are currently managed by former United boss Jose Mourinho.

Fenerbahce offered United trio

Among the trio — Christian Eriksen, Antony and Victor Lindelof, the Portuguese is very interested in a reunion with the Swede, who was brought to Old Trafford by Mourinho himself.

As of now, the Turkish giants, who are second in their league, have not taken any decision on whether to go after the Brazilian and the Dane.

The report surprisingly also states that Fener have their eyes on both Joshua Zirkzee and Marcus Rashford, with the duo failing to adapt with Amorim’s demands.

Even though the Mancunian has declared his intention to leave, Fenerbahce will find it difficult to afford his services while Zirkzee seems to be heading to Juventus.

“It was reported that Lindelöf, Eriksen and Antony were offered to the Yellow-Navy Blues through intermediaries. It was reported that the Yellow-Navy Blues, who are expected to make two stopper transfers, are particularly keen on Victor Lindelöf.

“The Swedish defender was transferred from Benfica to Manchester United by Mourinho in 2017 for 35 million Euros. It was reported that the Portuguese coach was positive about the 30-year-old defender.

Mourinho wants Lindelof

“It was also reported that no decision had been made regarding Antony and Eriksen. On the other hand, it was stated that Fenerbahçe was following the situations of Rashford and Zirkzee, but that the transfer of both stars was very difficult. There is a high probability that Rashford will go to PSG and Zirkzee to Juventus.”

Lindelof’s current deal ends in 2025 and a January exit could allow the Red Devils to recoup a small fee while also clearing his wages of £120,000 per week off the books.

He is currently injured and is lower down the pecking order, and Amorim is open to his departure. Eriksen’s deal also ends next summer and the club have no intention of offering him an extension.

As for Antony, United know it will be difficult to earn even half of what they paid Ajax and are resigned to losing him on the cheap with lots of clubs eyeing a loan.
