Manchester United Ready to Bid for Ex-Man City Talent Favored by Amorim

Manchester United is reportedly preparing to make an opening offer for Brahim Diaz, a former Manchester City academy player currently at Real Madrid. This move comes as new manager Ruben Amorim looks to strengthen his squad during a challenging season.

The Red Devils are struggling in the Premier League, finding themselves closer to the relegation zone than European qualification spots. Amorim has been candid about the team’s poor performance, suggesting they could be the worst in the club’s history.

To turn things around, United are targeting reinforcements, with Diaz emerging as a key prospect. The 25-year-old winger, who can also play as an attacking midfielder, has caught Amorim’s eye and could fit well into the manager’s preferred 3-4-2-1 system.

Diaz’s journey has taken him from Manchester City to Real Madrid, with successful loan spells at AC Milan where he won a Serie A title. Despite his talents, he often finds himself on the bench at Madrid, a situation United could exploit.

The Moroccan international has received high praise in the past, with legendary defender Alessandro Nesta commending his “fantastic plays in tight spaces” during his time at Milan.

If successful, this would be the second ex-City academy graduate United have signed recently, following Jadon Sancho’s transfer. The club will hope Diaz can make a more significant impact than Sancho, whose time at Old Trafford has been disappointing.

As United prepare their offer, fans will be eager to see if Diaz can provide the spark needed to revitalize the team’s fortunes under Amorim’s leadership.
