Man Utd set sights on signing Samu Omorodion from Porto
Manchester United’s ongoing struggle for goals has reportedly led them to eye up FC Porto’s rising star Samu Omorodion. Despite adding Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna over the summer, United’s attacking woes have continued, with only nine goals scored across their first ten Premier League games. As a result, they find themselves hovering at a disappointing 13th in the table, lacking the clinical edge up front.
Fichajes reports that Omorodion is high on United’s wishlist for next year. The 20-year-old has enjoyed an impressive season with Porto, netting 11 goals in 10 appearances across Liga Portugal and the Europa League. His standout performances include a brace against United in a thrilling 3-3 European draw.
However, Omorodion won’t come cheap. He has an £84 million release clause, with heavy interest from Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea complicating United’s potential pursuit.
Known for his strength, speed, aerial prowess, and work rate, Omorodion’s profile seems tailor-made for the Premier League. Whether United will make a decisive move for him remains to be seen, but adding a player of his caliber could be key to reigniting their attack next season.
