Man Utd fans asks Ruben Amorim to sign player this summer and his answer has gone viral

Ruben Amorim was told to sign a player ahead of the Europa League semi-final second leg with Athletic Club at Old Trafford.

Ruben Amorim has gone viral for how he responded to a fan who made transfer recommendations prior to Thursday night's Europa League semi-final.

Having beaten Athletic Club 3-0 away from home last week, United host the Basque outfit in the second leg at Old Trafford and are within touching distance of an appearance in the final on 21 May.

Amorim and his squad arrived nice and early, signing autographs and posing for pictures.

But while doing so, the Portuguese was greeted by one supporter who had some suggestions on transfer targets for the summer window - namely Rayan Cherki of United's Europa League quarter-final opponents Lyon.

The fan, who appeared to be French, told Amorim, "Ruben we want Cherki at Manchester" - but the former Sporting CP man appeared to reply, "Nah" as he continued signing.

Amorim was also told to reunite with his former striker Viktor Gyokeres but he didn't offer much of a response.

France international Cherki scored twice against United in a 7-6 aggregate defeat for Lyon and he has been linked with both the Red Devils and Liverpool in recent times.

Gyokeres, meanwhile, is one of the most sought-after strikers in world football and has notched an incredible 52 goals in 49 games in all competitions this season.

Closer to home, Mateus Cunha of Wolves and Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap appear to be top targets for United, who are also taking an interest in Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo.

They have, however, already sealed a deal for a new player ahead of the summer.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, United have agreed to sign 18-year-old Enzo Kana Biyik from Le Havre.

United have reportedly beaten the likes of Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco to sign Kana Biyik, who has been described as a "signing for the future" and is yet to play a first-team game.

Having rejected the chance to join his brothers at PSG, he is set to sign a long-term contract until 2030.

However, the youngster is widely expected to be loaned out immediately - potentially to Swiss side and INEOS-backed FC Lausanne-Sport.
