Ruben Amorim has firmly dismissed claims that Manchester United secured the signings of Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha solely by offering lucrative contracts. In a recent statement ahead of the friendly match against West Ham, Amorim clarified, “Cunha and Bryan had various options available to them, including Champions League offers. They chose to come here, and those who suggest that money was the only factor are mistaken. I can assure you of that, and it makes me very happy.”
He emphasized that the desire to join the club is crucial. “It’s essential that players want to be here. For the fans, we aim to bring in players who have already proven themselves. While it’s important to recognize potential in younger players, we need to have a thorough understanding of who we’re bringing into the team. This involves speaking with the player and explaining our vision for the club.”
Amorim stressed that finding the right fit is necessary for the team’s success. “If we can identify a player who meets our criteria and can contribute positively to the squad during the transfer market, we will pursue them. However, we must be cautious and strategic, as this is a pivotal time for our club.”
This approach highlights Amorim’s commitment to building a strong and motivated team, prioritizing passion and proven talent over mere financial incentives.
