Manchester United are reportedly considering making a move for a wonderkid who made his debut under Liverpool manager Arne Slot.

Since coming to Old Trafford at the end of November, Amorim has turned United's season around with two wins and one draw in his three games in charge of United.

However, with the January transfer window opening in less than 30 days time, fans will be eager to see which player will be the first United signing under their new manager.

And now, a new report has revealed that the Red Devils are considering making a move for a talented wonderkid who made his debut under Slot.

Antoni Milambo, a 19-year-old attacking midfielder currently playing for Dutch side Feyenoord, is reportedly a future transfer target for United, who have included him in a shortlist of players they hope to bring to the club.

According to Sky Sports reporter Florian Plettenberg, the talented youngster has been on United's list for a long time and a move for him has been considered multiple times

After United gathered information on Milambo and how he plays, he is now seen as a perfect fit for the type of player that the club is currently looking.

His current deal with Feyenoord is set to expire in 2027, but Plettenberg reports that United are more likely to make a move over the summer, rather than in the upcoming January transfer window.

Milambo joined Feyenoord's academy in 2015 at the age of 10 and He signed his first professional contract with the club five years later on 15 October 2020.

Since then, Milambo has gone on to make 34 appearances in all competitions for the Feyenoord senior team, scoring seven goals and assisting one.

His first goal came on 21 October 2023, as Milambo netted the fourth in a 4–0 home win over Vitesse in the Dutch Eredivisie.
