In a strong show of loyalty, Sporting Lisbon forward Viktor Gyökeres has publicly declared his readiness to follow manager Ruben Amorim to Manchester United if needed. Amid rumors surrounding potential transfers with Amorim’s rumored appointment at Old Trafford, Gyökeres’ pledge has stirred excitement among United fans eager to see his talents in the Premier League.
Gyökeres, who has thrived as one of Sporting’s top attackers under Amorim, credits his manager for his success. Reflecting on Amorim’s trust in him, Gyökeres remarked, “The player I am today, every goal I’ve scored—it’s all because of Ruben Amorim. He believed in me when others didn’t.” He emphasized his unwavering loyalty to Amorim, even suggesting he would make personal sacrifices, saying, “If he needs me at Manchester United, I’ll pack my bags today. If he asks for a pay cut, I’d do it without hesitation.”
Reports hint that Gyökeres and Amorim have already discussed a potential future at United, with Gyökeres revealing, “We’ve talked, and he said he needs me at United.” While nothing is confirmed, his words have sparked optimism among fans, who recognize his goal-scoring ability as a valuable asset for United’s attack. One fan remarked, “This guy is deadly in front of goal. We need him at United!”
Gyökeres’ dedication to Amorim highlights his respect for the manager’s role in his career and his readiness for the Premier League’s challenges. With Amorim reportedly tasked with reshaping United’s squad, securing a prolific scorer like Gyökeres could be a key move in his plans.
While Gyökeres remains focused on his current duties at Sporting Lisbon, his commitment to reuniting with Amorim creates an exciting possibility for the January transfer window. As United seek to build a title-challenging squad, Gyökeres’ loyalty and passion could help usher in a new chapter, bringing fresh firepower to the Red Devils.
