Amorim’s future, therefore, cannot be discussed in isolation to the club’s medium-to-long term plan. He underlined the need to make ‘intelligent’ decisions with next summer’s transfer window in mind.
Amorim was clear that no player should be signed without his agreement, and this was to further cement his desire for a detailed recruitment approach. It’s urgently important that we get recruitment right in order to increase our organizational effectiveness and competitiveness. His comments reflect a broader initiative within Manchester United to streamline its approach to player acquisitions, ensuring that each addition aligns with the club’s long-term vision.
When all’s said and done, this is a club whose summer plans center on high-profile, expensive upgrades to the squad. More importantly, Amorim revealed that the club will soon be advertising a new recruitment process. This new strategy will lead to selecting players with the mix of skills they need, while matching exactly to their team culture. He added, “We’re searching for players who can come in and improve the group and help make a real impact on our ambitions.”
As he moderated the discussion, Amorim further expanded on how collective action is critical in recruitment. He noted optimism that the development plan would tap all of the cumulative knowledge of their coaching staff and scouting department. Together, this strategy is designed to build a better integrated and more impactful cross-department team that can compete at the highest levels.
