Hjulmand much loved, Sporting midfielder attracting interest | OneFootball

Ruben Amorim is one of the main candidates to sign Morten Hjulmand. The former Sporting coach wants to negotiate with the Lions, but Frederico Varandas has already admitted that he refuses to enter into talks for the Dane in the January transfer window.

According to information reported by TEAMtalk, Morten Hjulmand is "absolutely loved" by Ruben Amorim, who coached him at Sporting throughout the 2023/24 season and almost half of the following season, before moving to Manchester United.

The same source reiterates that Manchester United believes it is possible to convince Frederico Varandas to release Hjulmand for 50 million euros, even though the Sporting player’s release clause is set at 80M.

The good relationship between Hjulmand and Ruben Amorim is considered a key element in the deal, as the British outlet points to the former Sporting coach’s strong belief that he can persuade the Lions’ number 42 to move to Old Trafford.

This season, wearing the Sporting shirt, Morten Hjulmand – valued at 50 million euros – has played in 12 matches. The captain of the green and whites started in all the games played by the Lions, having scored one goal in 1,090 minutes of play.
