Manchester United open talks to sign £83m teenager compared to Cristiano Ronaldo
Manchester United have historically kept a close eye on talents at Sporting CP.
The Red Devils famously signed Cristiano Ronaldo from the Portuguese giants back in 2003 in an 𓃲£12m deal – a move many regard to be one of the best transfers of all time.
Furthermore, M✱anchester United have also taken the likes of Nani and Bruno Fernandes from Sporting CP – with both sides sha🦹ring a strong relationship.
The latter has since become captain under Erik ten Hag – but is currently leading his colleagues nowhere special as Manchester United sit 12th in the Premier League.

Now, another top ta🤪lent at Sporting CP🅷 could swap Lisbon for Manchester in Geovany Quenda.
Manchester United make contact to sign Geovany Quenda
A story from in Portugal now claims that Manchester United have been in touchꦫ with Sporting CP to ask what it would take to sign the 17-year-old wonderkid.
Quenda has already been called up to the Portugal side by Roberto Martinez – where he met Ronaldo – having made a strong impression under⛎ Ruben Amorim at the Estadio Jose Alvalade.
A Bola believe Sportin💛g CP recognise the teenager’s immense ability, and have therefore protected him with a €100m 𝄹(£83m) release clause.

The Portuguese news outlet state that Sporting CP took the decision to increase Quenda’s €45m (£37.4m) release clause up to £83m when agreeing a new contract with the winger in September – in expectation of Premier League clubs making apprꦇoaches.
INEOS could sign the new Cristiano Ronaldo for Erik ten Hag, but a sale is needed first
Despite comparisons to Ronaldo – as both rose through the youth ranks at Sporting CP while dazzling on the flanks – Manchester United would be unwise to sign Quenda befor🐈e offloading Anto🍌ny.
The Sporting CP No.57 is a similar profile to the Brazilian and also Amad Diallo, in the way that he tends to cu🌃t inside from t🦹he right flank onto his stronger left foot.
Signing Quenda now would mean the teen🐼ager finds himself in a crowded field fo🧸r game time at Old Trafford, although INEOS are making plans to free up some space in Ten Hag’s attack.
TBR Football understand Manchester United have told Antony♋ he can leave in January, so if the South American does find a new clu🅰b, perhaps the door will open for Quenda.
