- Manchester United are waiting for their new manager, Ruben Amorim, to take charge next week
- The Red Devils have made a poor start to the season and are hoping the Sporting CP coach can bring a quick change
- The club are reportedly eyeing two players in the January transfer window to strengthen their team
Rubun Amorim will take over at Manchester United next week, but the club has a long list of problems.
The team lacks an identity; they're struggling to score goals, and the squad is not balanced.
Reports have indicated they will be eyeing two players in the January transfer window to bolster the squad.
Will Man United do business in January?
The English giants made some high-profile signings in the summer, including Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro. Signing players who can make an instant impact in January can be tricky.
Bruno Fernandes is Man United's latest January signing, who became successful.
According to Metro Sports, the Red Devils are looking to sign two players in January and have a few names in mind.
The report adds that the club are monitoring Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka to strengthen their midfield. However, the German star is not looking to leave the Bundesliga giants in January.
The club is also targeting an 'affordable striker' to improve their forward line. They have been linked with Amorim's striker Viktor Gyokeres, but he is unlikely to join.
Amorim will likely make some changes to the squad and might need new signings in January.
How Man United will play under Amorim
Legit.ng earlier reported that Amorim briefly explained how Manchester United could play when he takes charge.
He stressed that he wants his team to play "without fear", meaning we will see a much more attacking style at Old Trafford.

The young coach shared the details of his contract negotiations with his new employers and explained why he decided to make the big move.
