Berrada Receives Amorim’s Greenlight for Midfielder Chase
Ruben Amorim has given the greenlight to Manchester United CEO Omar Berrada to prioritise the pursuit of Sunderland midfield star Jobe Bellingham this summer.
Manchester United are now keeping strong tabs on the Sunderland star Jobe Bellingham.
The Red Devils are trying to build a squad capable of challenging for trophies and the club’s board are keen to back new manager Ruben Amorim with new additions.
Man Utd are working to scout the best young talents in Britain and TEAMtalk understands that 19-year-old Sunderland midfielder Bellingham is firmly on their radar.
Bellingham, who is the younger brother of Real Madrid superstar Jude, joined the Black Cats in the summer of 2023.
He’s gone on to play a key role in the club’s promotion charge, notching four goals and three assists in 23 Championship appearances this season.
Man Utd will face competition for Bellingham, with a number of Premier League sides understood to be keeping tabs on him. Sunderland are determined to keep him this month, but a move could still materialise.
Man Utd tried to sign Jude Bellingham previously and even gave him a tour of their Carrington training ground but missed out, as he opted to sign for Real Madrid instead.
They don’t want to repeat that mistake with Bellingham Jr and have formally registered their interest in bringing the Sunderland starlet to Old Trafford.
