Manchester United are already exploring a swoop for Sporting wing-back Geovany Quenda at the end of the season, according to reports. The Red Devils are focused on what’s primed to be a hectic end to the January transfer window, but preparations for ‘s first summer are ongoing in the background.
Amorim is ready to welcome his first recruit as United boss before Monday’s deadline, with Patrick Dorgu expected in Manchester for his medical this weekend.
The 20-year-old left-wing-back is landing at Old Trafford in a deal worth £25million plus a potential £4m in add-ons.
But Amorim is also said to be eyeing reinforcements on the right flank, placing his first-choice option at Sporting at the top of his shortlist.
According to , United are working on a deal to sign Quenda this summer and reunite him with his former head coach.
It’s claimed that the 17-year-old talent is expected to cost around £33m, but United have yet to submit a formal offer while prioritising their January dealings.
Quenda can operate on both wings – similarly to Dorgu – but has primarily played on the right since Amorim oversaw his promotion from Sporting’s youth ranks.
The Portugal U21 international is widely considered one of Europe’s brightest young talents, scoring two goals and providing six assists in 34 appearances this season.
