The new Manchester United manager, Ruben Amorim, has reportedly identified Galatasaray winger Yunus Akgun as a key target for the upcoming January transfer window. It is said that Amorim had included Akgun in his transfer shortlist while at Sporting CP and has continued to show interest after his move to Manchester United. Amorim is reported to have added Akgun to his wish list and shared a positive opinion about the player. Following Amorim's request, Manchester United's scouts have begun monitoring Akgun. Akgun remains under contract with Galatasaray until 2026, and there has been no indication whether Galatasaray or Akgun are open to negotiations with Manchester United.

Yunus Akgün, a 24-year-old talent from Galatasaray, is attracting international interest, with Manchester United leading the race for his transfer. His performances in the Süper Lig have drawn comparisons to Arda Güler and attracted European teams. Manchester United's interest highlights his potential for growth in the Premier League, but Turkish fans hope he stays longer at Galatasaray amid the transfer pressure.
