Hjulmand Denmark midfielder
Manchester United need to strengthen things at the back and for that, they need a top quality play breaker in the center of the park.
If reports in the media are anything to go by then Ruben Amorim wants Man Utd to sign Morten Hjulmand from his former side, Sporting CP.

As per today’s edition of O Jogo, the Red Devils are looking to strengthen their midfield for the 2025/26 season, and the Lions captain is highly regarded.
The Portuguese news outlet have mentioned that Juventus are also interested in luring the Danish international and are willing to offer a fee of 40 million euros.
However, his current contract, due to expire in 2028, has a release clause of 80 million euros (£63.9million), and Sporting have made the suitors aware that they will not negotiate his transfer at a bargain price.
Should Man Utd sign Morten Hjulmand?
As far as the defensive midfield is concerned, the Old Trafford outfit have veteran Casemiro, who is past his prime and must be sold in all fairness.
On the other hand, last year, United splashed the cash to lure Uruguayan international, Manuel Ugarte, from PSG.
The South American excelled at Sporting under the guidance of Amorim, but unfortunately, he was average in the center of the park for Man Utd, who leaked 54 goals in the Premier League last season.
The Lions have won back to back league titles in Portugal and Hjulmand has been rock solid in the DM role for them.
In your view, should Amorim trust Ugarte or move for the Danish star, who is currently in his peak.?
