Amorim now wants Man United to sign £70m 6ft 3in star Pep Guardiola admires - report

New Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim wants the Red Devils to sign Sporting Lisbon centre-back Ousmane Diomande, according to the Sun.

The 39-year-old has been announced as the permanent successor to Erik ten Hag, who was fired on Monday, and he will join the Old Trafford club on November 11.

Amorim is expected to stick with his preferred 3-4-3 formation at Man United. Leny Yoro, Matthijs De Ligt and Lisandro Martinez fit perfectly into the system, but the Portuguese wants to bring Diomande with him from Sporting.
