Manchester United have initiated negotiations with a Real Madrid star, targeting him as Ruben Amorim’s premier blockbuster signing.

Man Utd have opened talks with Real Madrid star, eyeing him as Ruben Amorim’s first marquee signing.

He is reportedly honored by the attention.

According to reports from Spain, Manchester United have shown interest in a player from Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid squad, with the player reportedly feeling flattered by the attention.

Just days into Ruben Amorim’s tenure as Manchester United manager, the transfer rumors are already heating up as he gears up for his first match in charge against Ipswich Town.

Earlier this week, it was revealed that United are looking to sign a new left-back for Amorim’s 2025 system, with Alphonso Davies and Milos Kerkez both linked to a potential move to Old Trafford.

Pedro Porro, who developed an outstanding relationship with Ruben Amorim during their time together at Sporting, has also been linked to a move, following a standout start to the Premier League season with Tottenham Hotspur.

Now, a new report has surfaced indicating that Manchester United have reached out to intermediaries representing Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga.

Camavinga, who has secured two Champions League titles during a highly successful three-year stint at Madrid, is reportedly honored by the interest, according to Bernabeu Digital.

Despite Manchester United’s ambitious pursuit, the move for the French midfielder has been deemed unsuccessful, as he is determined to stay at Real Madrid for many more years.

On a brighter note for United fans, the report reveals that the club’s board is prepared to open the cheque book and fully support Ruben Amorim with new signings.

Earlier this month, it was suggested that Amorim would work with a more modest budget compared to Erik ten Hag, who oversaw more than £600 million in spending during his two-and-a-half-year tenure.

In the summer, players like Joshua Zirkzee, Matthijs de Ligt, Noussair Mazraoui, Leny Yoro, and Manuel Ugarte were brought in, with a total expenditure of around £200 million.

A report from The Telegraph indicated that Manchester United are unlikely to be highly active in the January transfer window, unless a significant opportunity arises, as Ruben Amorim has been tasked with maximizing the untapped potential within the current squad.

The club’s hierarchy believes the existing players are capable of delivering more on the pitch, with Rasmus Højlund and Mason Mount highlighted as two key individuals who could make a greater impact moving forward.

Regarding players deemed “not for sale”, the trio of Alejandro Garnacho, Kobbie Mainoo, and Rasmus Højlund are considered strictly off limits.
