In a stunning twist that has left Manchester United fans shell-shocked, red-hot Nigerian wonderkid Mbemuo has officially ended all hopes of a move to Old Trafford – and is now focused on joining fierce rivals Liverpool.
The highly-rated talent, dubbed the “next big African star,” had long dreamed of donning the red of Manchester United. But after 44 days of silence and broken promises, the player has exploded with frustration and turned his back on the club he once adored.
“Today marks 44 days since United started talks, and it’s clear they’re not serious,” Mbemuo said in an emotional statement. “They move fast for players like Sancho, but with me, it’s just silence. I’ve waited long enough. I’m ending my dream of joining Manchester United. I’m now focusing on Liverpool that actually wants me. They had their chance — they blew it.”
💔 For United fans, this is a nightmare. The club, once feared for its ruthlessness in the transfer market, now appears lost, slow, and indecisive. Mbemuo’s words cut deep – especially the biting comparison to Jadon Sancho, who United aggressively pursued in 2021.
Liverpool, on the other hand, have moved swiftly and professionally, convincing the young talent that Anfield is the place to grow. With Arne Slot already working to reshape the Reds’ attack, Mbemuo is believed to be a major piece of the puzzle.
This is not just a transfer loss – this is an embarrassment for Manchester United.
🔴 HELL NO! We’ve lost this one.
He was open. He was ready. He wanted us.
Now he’s off to Liverpool – our biggest rivals – and it hurts more than words can say.
Another talent lost. Another dream shattered. All because United failed to act. 💔🙀
Fans are raging, rivals are laughing, and Mbemuo is heading to Anfield.
