Amorim wanted to welcome Liam Delap to Old Trafford after his breakthrough season in the Premier League but the Ipswich Town star has chosen to join Chelsea instead.
Delap’s decision has caused Manchester United to look elsewhere and they have been linked with Viktor Gyokeres, Benjamin Sesko and Hugo Ekitike.
United are also considering an offer from Paris Saint-Germain to bring Portugal forward Goncalo Ramos to the Theatre of Dreams.
According to the Daily Mail, intermediaries have given Amorim the chance to sign Ramos this summer after he was deemed surplus to requirements by PSG boss Luis Enrique.
Paris Saint-Germain spent around £60m to sign the 23-year-old from Benfica in 2023, beating the likes of Manchester United and Arsenal to a deal.
It was reported at the time that Bruno Fernandes, now the United captain, was keen for his compatriot to arrive at the club.
Ramos scored 14 goals during his first season in Paris and another 18 this term as Enrique’s side won a stunning treble, lifting the first ever Champions League trophy and dominating in Ligue 1.
But he has struggled for starts ever seen arriving from Benfica – coming on as an 84th-minute substitute in the Champions League final – and has been put up for sale this summer.
Despite being behind Cristiano Ronaldo in the pecking order, Ramos has also shown his potential for Portugal, scoring nine goals in 15 games and bagging a World Cup hat-trick in Qatar.
At 23, Ramos certainly fits the profile of players Manchester United are keen to sign this summer, having already secured a deal for Matheus Cunha and in talks with Bryan Mbeumo.
Gyokeres is another option for the striker position and enjoyed playing under Amorim before he left Sporting Lisbon to take over at Old Trafford.
But the Swedish No. 9 has offers from Champions League clubs so United’s failure to qualify for any European football could prove costly.
