Summary:

  • Manchester United scouts are in Portugal targeting FC Porto players.

  • Coach Ruben Amorim is assessing his squad after a rough start in the Premier League.

  • Rodrigo Mora, a 17-year-old standout, has a potential €60 million release clause.

  • Nico Gonzalez and Samuel Omorodion are also attracting attention for their impressive performances.

Manchester United Scouts in Portugal

Manchester United scouts are reportedly on the lookout for talent in Portugal, focusing on three standout players from FC Porto. This scouting mission comes as the club seeks to bolster its squad following the appointment of Ruben Amorim as the new head coach.

FC Porto Players

Amorim, who previously coached Sporting CP, has begun assessing his new team at Old Trafford, which currently sits 14th in the Premier League after a challenging start. Since taking over, the team has suffered five defeats in ten games, highlighting the urgent need for reinforcements, particularly in defense and midfield as they approach the January transfer window.

Stars Shining at FC Porto

While the specific players being scouted have not been disclosed, Rodrigo Mora, a promising 17-year-old forward, has emerged as a top prospect. He excelled in a recent match against Boavista, showcasing his skills by scoring a goal and assisting another. Mora is noted for his versatility and has garnered attention for his potential, with a rumored release clause of €60 million.

In addition to Mora, Nico Gonzalez, a 22-year-old midfielder and a product of Barcelona's La Masia academy, is also catching the eye. He has netted five goals and provided four assists this season, earning comparisons to Sergio Busquets for his playing style.

Another name making waves is Samuel Omorodion, a 20-year-old striker who has scored 13 goals in as many Liga Portugal games this season. His performance against Manchester United in the UEFA Europa League further solidified his reputation as a player to watch.

With these young talents shining brightly, it remains to be seen how United will navigate the upcoming transfer window and whether they will secure any of these emerging stars from FC Porto.
