£70m Man Utd Star Will ‘Offer Himself’ to Liverpool After Being ‘Fed Up’ With Ruben Amorim – Report

 

In what could be one of the most sensational transfer twists of the summer, a report claims that a £70 million-rated Manchester United star is prepared to ‘offer himself’ to bitter rivals Liverpool after becoming disillusioned under the leadership of new manager Ruben Amorim. The player—believed to be a marquee signing from recent seasons—is said to be deeply unhappy with his role, tactical treatment, and the broader direction of the club since Amorim’s arrival in March.

 

The report, published by Spanish outlet Fichajes, suggests the player has already instructed his representatives to gauge Liverpool’s interest ahead of a possible shock switch across enemy lines. While such a transfer would be highly controversial, the move would underscore growing unrest at Old Trafford as Amorim begins a ruthless rebuild.

 

Who Is the Player?

 

While the report does not officially name the individual, multiple sources point toward Bruno Fernandes, United’s Portuguese playmaker and current captain. Signed for an initial £47 million in January 2020 from Sporting CP, Bruno has been one of United’s most productive players over the past four years, with more than 60 goals and 50 assists to his name.

 

However, despite his status as a fan favorite and dressing room leader, Bruno’s influence has waned in recent months. Amorim’s arrival has introduced new tactical demands that reportedly limit Fernandes’ creative freedom. The midfielder has been asked to play deeper or shift wider, and insiders claim he has not responded well to those adjustments.

 

Adding to the tension is the fact that Amorim managed Sporting after Bruno’s departure—meaning the two never worked together prior to this season, and mutual understanding may be lacking.

 

The Breakdown with Amorim

 

Amorim is known for his disciplined, system-first approach to management. At Sporting, he regularly rotated his captains and emphasized tactical obedience over individual flair. At United, he has begun implementing a similar philosophy, and while some players—like Kobbie Mainoo and Lisandro Martínez—have embraced it, others are said to be struggling.

 

Reports suggest Bruno feels marginalized, both tactically and emotionally. Sources close to the dressing room claim the midfielder has clashed with Amorim during training sessions and post-match meetings, particularly over the decision to shift the team’s creative focal point toward younger players like Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho.

 

“Bruno feels like he’s being phased out of the leadership circle,” one source told The Athletic. “He doesn’t see eye-to-eye with Amorim on footballing ideas, and that’s created a rift that’s now difficult to ignore.”

 

Amorim, for his part, has refused to be drawn into public discussions about individual players, stating repeatedly that “no one is guaranteed a place in the XI.”

 

Why Liverpool?

 

Bruno Fernandes offering himself to Liverpool may seem improbable on the surface, given the fierce rivalry between the two clubs. However, there are several reasons the move, while controversial, could make sense from a footballing perspective.

 

Firstly, Liverpool are entering a new era themselves under Arne Slot, who replaces Jürgen Klopp at the helm. The Dutchman is expected to reshape the midfield further following last summer’s rebuild, and an experienced, goal-scoring playmaker like Bruno could be seen as a perfect addition.

 

Secondly, Bruno’s playing style could flourish under Slot’s attacking philosophy. While Amorim demands positional rigidity, Slot values dynamic creativity in the final third. Fernandes could find himself in a freer, more expressive role—similar to what he enjoyed in his early United days.

 

Thirdly, Liverpool lack a direct replacement for the creative output of someone like Jordan Henderson or even Philippe Coutinho, whose ability to break the lines and score from midfield remains unmatched. Bruno, at his best, brings those qualities.

 

Lastly, from a career standpoint, Fernandes is 29 and entering what many consider to be his peak years. If he believes his role at United is being diminished, a move—however controversial—could reignite his trajectory.

 

Would United Sell to Liverpool?

 

Selling a star player to your biggest domestic rival is almost unheard of at modern top clubs, particularly when emotions and history are so entrenched. Manchester United have long resisted doing business with Liverpool, with very few examples of direct transfers between the sides in the Premier League era.

 

However, new leadership at Old Trafford under Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS could prioritize pragmatism over sentiment. If Bruno makes it clear he wants to leave, and Liverpool are the only serious bidders, United may be forced to consider it—especially if Amorim does not see the midfielder as integral to his long-term plans.

 

With United needing to raise funds to meet Financial Fair Play (FFP) guidelines and bankroll their rebuild, a £70m sale could prove tempting. That fee could help secure a younger, system-compatible midfielder—like João Neves or Morten Frendrup—who better fits Amorim’s model.

 

Fan Reaction and Implications

 

Unsurprisingly, the idea of Bruno Fernandes joining Liverpool has sparked outrage and disbelief among United fans online. Social media has been flooded with reactions ranging from denial to fury, with many supporters calling on the club to “put the rivalry above the money.”

 

Others, however, have adopted a more pragmatic tone, acknowledging that Bruno’s time at United may be winding down regardless of where he goes.

 

For Liverpool fans, the prospect is more mixed. While many respect Fernandes’ quality, some question whether his temperament and history at United make him a good fit for a dressing room built around cohesion and humility.

 

Amorim’s Stance

 

If the reports are true, Ruben Amorim’s stance will be decisive. If he truly sees Fernandes as expendable, he may greenlight the sale in favor of players who better align with his tactical philosophy. However, the manager is also under pressure to improve results quickly, and offloading one of the team’s most experienced leaders could create backlash—both internally and from the fanbase.

 

Amorim is expected to meet with club executives this week to finalize his summer transfer strategy, and Bruno’s situation will likely top the agenda.

 

Conclusion: The Beginning of the End?

 

While still early in the summer, signs point toward a dramatic and potentially controversial exit for Bruno Fernandes. If tensions with Amorim continue to rise and if Liverpool’s interest turns concrete, United could be forced into a situation no one would have imagined just a year ago.

 

In the volatile world of modern football, where loyalty is often trumped by ambition, even the unthinkable becomes possible. And if this saga ends with Bruno Fernandes in a Liverpool shirt, it may become one of the most talked-about transfers in Premier League history.
