Rubén Amorim has called him and he's desperate to see him in Manchester: Barça could accept

The Portuguese coach wants a footballer from Barça

Rubén Amorim wants to relaunch his project with the idea of bringing in young talent, with personality and experience in top-level clubs. After a very inconsistent season and without the desired results, the Portuguese coach wants to relaunch the team and return it to the top spots. To achieve this, he has set his sights on Barça.

The Portuguese coach wants to fish at Barça and in its youth academy, and he has communicated to the English club his desire to sign several players.

Without Europe, United seeks fresh air

One of the reasons why Rubén Amorim has asked United's executives for decisive moves is that the team won't play in European competitions this season.

In this regard, one of the names that stands out is Fermín. The young Barça midfielder has impressed both insiders and outsiders with his ability to break lines, his runs from deep, and his character. Amorim believes that he could fit perfectly into the dynamic and aggressive profile he wants to establish in his new United.

Marc Casado, the main priority

However, according to El Nacional, the real priority for Manchester United and Rubén Amorim is Marc Casado. The Masia midfielder could be the replacement for Casemiro, who has already entered the final stage of his career.

Casado's youth, his room for growth, and his tactical training make him a very attractive piece for United's future. In addition, the fact that he won't play in European competition this season would give him a less demanding environment in which to keep developing his talent.

Tempted by playing time and prominence

Manchester United's offer comes at a crucial moment for Marc Casado. Barça's midfield is overcrowded, especially in the double pivot, where players like Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Marc Bernal, and Gavi seem to be ahead in the rotation. With only two positions available and seven footballers competing for them, it's clear that not everyone will have a leading role.

That's why, from the player's camp doesn't rule out carefully considering this possible move. United offers him playing time, responsibility, and an important place in Amorim's new project. Although his dream has always been to succeed at Barça, the sporting reality could push him to make a difficult decision.
