Red Devils also monitoring Nuno Mendes for potential squad overhaul.
Manchester United are keeping a close watch on Sporting CP talent, with scouts attending the club’s UEFA Champions League clash against Arsenal to evaluate striker Viktor Gyökeres, as well as forwards Geovany Quenda and Pedro Gonçalves. Additionally, Paris Saint-Germain left-back Nuno Mendes is reportedly on United’s radar.
According to reports, including from The Daily Mail, United’s interest in Gyökeres comes amid rising competition from Premier League rivals, including Manchester City. The Swedish striker has been in scintillating form, drawing widespread attention as one of Europe’s most prolific forwards.
United manager Ruben Amorim, who previously coached Mendes during their time at Sporting, is believed to view the 22-year-old defender as a strong candidate to fit his preferred 3-4-3 system. Mendes, currently at PSG, shares the same agent as United’s playmaker Bruno Fernandes, potentially smoothing the path for a move.
In addition to Gyökeres, United are reportedly assessing the potential of Geovany Quenda and Pedro Gonçalves as part of their long-term planning. Both players have impressed under Sporting’s current setup, and their attacking prowess aligns with United’s ambitions to rejuvenate their squad.
As Amorim works to reshape United in line with his tactical philosophy, the club’s interest in these Sporting stars highlights a commitment to building a dynamic and competitive roster.
