Manchester United's hopes of signing Viktor Gyokeres have been dashed due to a promise made by manager Erik ten Hag's predecessor, Ruben Amorim, while the club is reportedly open to selling Tyrell Malacia in January.
Manchester United travels to Liverpool on Sunday with Ruben Amorim's team aiming to avoid a fifth consecutive defeat. Arne Slot's team has only suffered one loss in all competitions this season, with a 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest being the sole setback. Liverpool leads the Premier League table by eight points and is strongly favored to match United's record of 20 English League title victories by May.
On the other hand, Amorim's side currently sits 14th in the top-flight table, seven points clear of the relegation zone following their 2-0 defeat to Newcastle. United's loss at home to Eddie Howe's side demonstrated their need for reinforcements, although the Reds' PSR position will make signings difficult in January. Our colleagues at the Mirror report that United will not be signing Swedish hot-shot Viktor Gyokeres this month because of a promise made by Amorim when he left Sporting. It is said that Amorim gave assurances that he wouldn't be returning to raid his former club during the January transfer window in a bid to help smooth his departure to Old Trafford in November. Gyokeres reportedly has an £80million buy-out clause. Elsewhere, GiveMeSport have claimed that United are open to offloading Tyrell Malacia in January if they succeed in acquiring an upgrade on the Dutchman and fellow left-back Luke Shaw. It is said that Juventus are circling after being alerted to the fact he may become available before the February 3 deadline. The report adds that Juventus may attempt to negotiate an initial loan deal if an opportunity arises. It is said that manager Thiago Motta believes Malacia has the traits needed to help his team qualify for next season's Champions League
