Amorim expressed his happiness over the signing, emphasizing how Ratcliffe’s involvement was crucial in securing the deal.
Since acquiring a 25% stake in Manchester United in 2024, Ratcliffe has played a pivotal role in reshaping the club’s transfer approach. Recognizing the team’s need for a proven goal scorer, he took direct action to bring in the highly sought-after striker, reflecting his commitment to strengthening the squad and restoring the club’s competitive edge.
Amorim, who became manager in November 2024, praised Ratcliffe’s efforts and shared his excitement about the new signing, stating, “He has agreed to join us after Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s intervention, and I’m so happy for that.” Amorim is confident that the striker will significantly boost United’s attacking capabilities.
This new arrival is expected to transform Manchester United’s offensive play, bringing a strong goal-scoring record that will complement the existing team and raise fan expectations for the upcoming season. With the strategic partnership between Ratcliffe and Amorim, the club is focused on returning to the top of European football.
