In a shocking development that has left Manchester United fans reeling, Nigerian sensation Mbemuo has officially ruled out a move to Old Trafford — and is now setting his sights on a switch to bitter rivals Liverpool.
The highly-touted youngster, hailed as the “next big African superstar,” once dreamed of wearing the famous red of United.
But after 44 days of silence and unmet promises, Mbemuo’s patience has snapped. The player, once full of hope, has now turned his back on the club he idolized.
“It’s been 44 days since United started discussions, and clearly, they’re not serious,” Mbemuo revealed in an emotional statement. “They made big moves for players like Sancho — but for me? Nothing but silence. I’ve waited long enough.
I’m done chasing a United dream that doesn’t exist. My focus is now on Liverpool — a club that actually wants me. United had their shot — and they blew it.”
💔 For United fans, this is a gut punch. Once a powerhouse in the transfer market, the club now seems hesitant, disorganized, and out of touch. Mbemuo’s stinging reference to United’s aggressive pursuit of Jadon Sancho only highlights the frustration.
Liverpool, meanwhile, acted quickly and decisively, convincing the rising star that Anfield is the right place to grow. With Arne Slot leading a new era for the Reds, Mbemuo is expected to play a key role in the club’s attacking plans.
This isn’t just a failed transfer — it’s a humiliation for United.
🔴 Absolute heartbreak. This one stings.
He was ready. He wanted to come.
Now he’s going to Liverpool — our fiercest rivals — and the pain is hard to put into words.
Another top prospect gone. Another opportunity wasted. All because United failed to make a move. 💔🙀
Fans are furious, the football world is watching — and Mbemuo is Anfield-bound.
