He said, "It is not the first time that my clause has been triggered by another club. It's not the second time either.
"I could have earned three times as much at the last club that redeemed my clause, but I made a choice.
"I am happy and comfortable here. Now I want Manchester United."
A Bola says West Ham and Al Nassr both made previous attempts for Amorim. The Portuguese held talks with the Hammers in London, before eventually turning them down.
