Overview
- Ruben Amorim said there will be no changes to Manchester United’s squad this month, insisting there have been no conversations to alter the group.
- United rejected advances to take Manuel Ugarte to Galatasaray on loan, with reports indicating the Turkish club were prepared to pay about £15m as a fee.
- Fabrizio Romano relayed the club stance that no player will depart in January unless a replacement is secured, reflecting messages shared internally and publicly.
- Reports describe growing concern from senior figures over tactical predictability, including Christopher Vivell sharing rival comments in a leadership WhatsApp group and strained relations with Jason Wilcox.
- Amorim appeared unusually downcast in his Friday press conference, as INEOS’ reluctance to do mid-season business and ongoing absences place further strain on options.
