Manchester United is undergoing a rebuilding process after several years of disastrous results. Since Sir Alex Ferguson's departure in 2013, the English club has tried different coaches but hasn't found the stability needed to return to the top of European soccer. However, this season has marked the beginning of a new cycle with Rubén Amorim.
With him and as the season progresses, United has shown a slight improvement, achieving greater solidity in their play and obtaining more consistent results. In February, the team seems to be finding its rhythm. In this regard, the 'Red Devils' don't want to stop and are determined to make significant signings this summer to consolidate the project and compete again with the big teams in Europe.
In the Locker Room, They Know About Manchester United's Interest
In Barça's locker room and offices, they know that Manchester United is actively moving in the market and that Rubén Amorim has a special interest in a player. It's no secret that the Portuguese coach is looking for young footballers with talent and the ability to adapt to his dynamic and offensive play style.
Barça's squad knows there is concrete interest in a footballer who is shining this season. The culé management and coaching staff are aware of the situation and are conscious that United could make a very significant offer in the coming months.
Rubén Amorim Wants Him in Red
The footballer who captivates Rubén Amorim is Fermín López. The young midfielder, who has had spectacular growth this season after the Olympic Games with the Spanish National Team, is seen as a key piece in Barça's future. In this regard, Manchester United is willing to make a significant effort for him.
According to 'El Nacional.cat', United is prepared to offer up to 50 million in the summer to secure Fermín López's services. Rubén Amorim considers him an ideal profile for his project at Old Trafford and believes he would fit perfectly into his scheme. The offer would be tempting for many clubs, but Barça is clear about its stance on the matter.
He's Untouchable for Barça
Barça is clear that Fermín López is an untransferable player. The club has just renewed him until 2029, ensuring his continuity and protecting itself from any transfer attempts by other teams. This renewal is nothing more than a great show of confidence that Hansi Flick and the management have in him as a key piece of the blaugrana's future.
Barça considers that alongside Lamine Yamal, Pedri, Gavi, and Pau Cubarsí, Fermín López is one of Barça's great gems and an essential part of the long-term project. The club's goal is to continue developing these players and build a team that can compete for all titles in the coming years. Therefore, any offer that comes for Fermín López will be rejected.
