Manchester United Target David Raum and Kenan Yildiz as Rebuild Under Amorim Begins

Ruben Amorim’s arrival at Manchester United has signalled the dawn of a new era at Old Trafford, with the Portuguese manager tasked with restoring the club’s former glory. As reported by Sky Sports Germany, United are actively exploring their options in the transfer market, with RB Leipzig’s David Raum and Juventus’ Kenan Yildiz emerging as key targets.

Amorim’s Vision for a Rebuilt United

After taking over a struggling United side languishing in ninth place in the Premier League, Amorim knows the magnitude of the task ahead. Despite a 4-0 win against Everton in his second game, Amorim remains cautious, stating, “We have a long way to go.”

Central to his vision is an overhaul of the squad, with several positions earmarked for reinforcements. The January transfer window is expected to see the start of this transformation, though major moves may continue into the summer.

David Raum: A Perfect Fit for Amorim’s System

Among the players linked with United, David Raum stands out as a versatile left-sided player ideal for Amorim’s preferred three-at-the-back system. The German international, currently sidelined with a ligament injury, offers the ability to operate as a wing-back, seamlessly balancing defensive and offensive responsibilities.

Raum’s dynamic style aligns with Amorim’s tactical approach, making him a strong candidate for United’s rebuild. However, with several top clubs circling, securing his services will not be straightforward.

Kenan Yildiz: A Rising Star for the Future

In attack, United are monitoring Kenan Yildiz, the 19-year-old Juventus winger and former Bayern Munich academy star. While Yildiz has a contract in Turin until 2029 and is adored by Juventus fans, Sky Sports Germany notes that interest from Manchester United, PSG, Arsenal, and Liverpool remains strong.

The Turkish international’s creativity and flair make him an exciting prospect, but convincing him to leave Juventus mid-project could be a significant challenge.

Ruben Amorim’s tactical clarity and vision are exactly what United needs, and the addition of players like Raum and Yildiz would elevate United’s ambitions.

David Raum could revolutionise the left flank with his attacking prowess and defensive solidity. His suitability for a three-at-the-back system makes him an ideal candidate for Amorim’s plans. For fans, the thought of Raum delivering pinpoint crosses to the likes of Rashford or Højlund is tantalising.

Kenan Yildiz represents the future. His performances at Juventus suggest he has the potential to be a global star. Adding such a creative talent to United’s attacking lineup could provide the flair and unpredictability that has been missing in recent years.

The rebuild will take time, but moves like these show the club is serious about returning to the summit of English football. Patience will be required, but with Amorim at the helm and smart recruitment, United fans can dare to dream once again.
