Ruben Amorim threatens to axe Salvador Blopa from Sporting | OneFootball

Manchester United wants to sign Salvador Blopa from Sporting. Although the club led by Ruben Amorim does not plan major changes in January, it is open to strengthening the squad if the right opportunity arises, at a time when it is fighting for qualification for European competitions next season.

According to the 'Daily Mail', the 'red devils' priority is to strengthen the midfield. However, the British club is also considering options to bolster the right-wing position, which puts the Sporting player as one of the footballers under observation.

The English newspaper states that Salvador Blopa would fit well into Manchester United's tactical system, whether in the 3-4-2-1 formation that Amorim usually uses, or in a switch to 4-3-3. The young player is seen as a future investment, with the ability to develop physically and technically and become an asset in the medium and long term.

The Portuguese under-19 international recently signed a new contract with Sporting until 2030, including a release clause of 80 million euros, due to his potential and good performances. Nevertheless, Ruben Amorim knows the player well, having followed him in the youth ranks of the Alvalade Club.

This sports season, Salvador Blopa has played 20 matches for Sporting: 11 in Liga 3 for the B team, three for the under-19s in the UEFA Youth League, and six in the main squad. In total, the winger has played 1,266 minutes, scoring three goals and providing two assists.
