In a shocking turn of events that has stunned Manchester United supporters, the highly sought-after Nigerian prodigy Mbemuo has officially ruled out a move to Old Trafford and is now set on joining their fierce rivals, Liverpool.
Touted as the “next big African star,” Mbemuo once dreamed of wearing the Manchester United jersey. However, after 44 days of silence and unmet promises, frustration got the better of him, leading to a complete rejection of the club he once admired.
“It’s been 44 days since United began negotiations, and it’s obvious they’re not serious,” Mbemuo said emotionally. “They acted quickly for players like Sancho, but with me, there’s been nothing but silence. I’ve waited long enough. I’m giving up on my dream to join Manchester United. Now, I’m focused on Liverpool, who actually want me. United had their chance — and they blew it.”
💔 For United fans, this is a devastating blow. Once known for their decisive and ruthless transfer dealings, the club now looks hesitant, slow, and unsure. Mbemuo’s sharp comparison to the aggressive pursuit of Jadon Sancho in 2021 only adds to the sting.
Liverpool, by contrast, have acted swiftly and professionally, persuading the young star that Anfield is the ideal place to develop. With Arne Slot already reshaping Liverpool’s attack, Mbemuo is expected to be a crucial addition.
This isn’t just a missed transfer — it’s a humiliation for Manchester United.
🔴 Absolutely devastating. We lost this one.
He was willing. He was prepared. He wanted to join us.
Now he’s heading to Liverpool — our fiercest rivals — and the pain is indescribable.
Another rising talent gone. Another dream crushed. All because United failed to act. 💔🙀
Fans are furious, rivals are celebrating, and Mbemuo is on his way to Anfield.
