Manchester United targets Goncalo Inacio from Sporting despite coach's earlier promise

Manchester United is pursuing a £33.5 million deal for Goncalo Inacio from Sporting, despite coach Ruben Amorim's earlier promise not to sign former players in January. Amorim aims to strengthen his squad amid Premier League struggles. Reports indicate that United may need to sell players like Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho to fund new signings. Mainoo has attracted interest from Chelsea, while Garnacho is linked to a potential swap deal with PSG. Amorim's interest in Inacio could conflict with his previous commitment to Sporting. United may propose a loan deal with an option to buy, facing competition from Borussia Dortmund for the defender's signature.
