Ruben Amorim is already planning for life beyond the Europa League final, with Manchester United’s rebuild set to continue regardless of Wednesday’s outcome.
The Red Devils are actively scanning the transfer market, with several key positions under review amid concerns about depth and injury reliability.
Goalkeeper remains one of the more unsettled areas, especially with Andre Onana enduring a turbulent campaign at Old Trafford.

Ruben Amorim remains open to reshaping his defensive spine, and that includes considering elite options between the posts.
With Champions League qualification hanging by a thread, United’s summer business could hinge on their result on Wednesday – but it hasn’t stopped high-level scouting and early conversations.
One name now strongly linked with a potential Old Trafford switch is Argentina’s World Cup-winning goalkeeper Emiliano ‘Dibu’ Martinez.
Reports in Spain suggest the Aston Villa shot-stopper could be on the move if Unai Emery’s side fails to secure Champions League qualification.
Emiliano Martinez, who played a key role in Argentina’s triumph in Qatar and has been a standout performer for Villa, is eager to compete for major trophies – something that may no longer align with Villa’s current trajectory.
United are among a cluster of top European sides monitoring his situation closely, alongside Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, as per Eduardo Burgos via X.

The 31-year-old has already rejected a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia, signalling his clear intention to remain in European football at the highest level.
While no official offers have yet been lodged, Manchester United are understood to have already made contact to gauge the player’s interest and potential availability.
Chelsea are also in the market for a new No.1, but United may have the edge with Martinez believed to be intrigued by Amorim’s vision and the chance to establish himself as a leader in a new-look squad.
Martinez’s experience, shot-stopping ability and commanding presence would make him a major upgrade in goal and add a vocal leader to United’s defensive core.
With Amorim prioritising hunger and mentality in his summer signings, the World Cup winner could be the perfect fit – especially if Villa miss out on the top four.
