British media footballtransfers reported that Manchester United coach Amorin was angry about the situation in the summer transfer window, especially about the question of Kobe Maynu's stay or leave.

Amorin reportedly was frustrated by the club's senior management's rejection of Maynu's loan request, and he originally wanted to introduce a midfielder he liked. Amorin is interested in Atletico Madrid star Connor Gallagher, who believes that the former Chelsea player can bring stronger fighting ability and mobility to the Red Devils midfielder. However, before the transfer deadline, the coach was told that Menu would stay on the team and would not introduce new players.

Gallagher has always been the long-term focus of Amorin and Manchester United. The club tried to sign him back in January but was rejected at the time and suggested that they consider it again in the summer. However, when Manchester United asked Simeone about Gallagher later in the transfer window, they were told that they could not reach a loan agreement, and Manchester United had neither the ability nor the intention to make a permanent transfer.

At the same time, Maynu himself also hopes to leave Old Trafford for loan exercises, because Amorin has made it clear that he is just a substitute for B in the midfield position. The young England international is worried about losing exposure before the 2026 World Cup and hopes to improve his level through first-team matches.

Since Manchester United has no European mission and has been eliminated from the League Cup, Maynu's chances of playing may be very limited. Amorin was upset that the club had left a player who clearly stated that he didn't want to stay at Manchester United, especially if he thought Gallagher was a viable option.
