In their pursuit to sign juggernauts like Leny Yoro from Lille at a hefty prize of €62.00 and Manuel Ugarte from Paris Saint Germain for a prize of €50.00m, Manchester United has to sell many of their players in which lies one of their veteran midfielder.
The Scottish international, who remained one of the most integral parts of the club in their initial years, has left for Italy and has found a new home for himself in the terrains of Naples, Italy.
Although many of the fans have pundits who have considered this move as a bold but good motion, one of the United’s former midfielders has come up with some intriguing views on the scenario.
Nemanja Matic criticizes United for selling Scott McTominay to Napoli
Nemanja Matic, who played for the Reds between 2017-2022 has revelry criticized Erik Ten Hag and co. for their decision to sell the midfielder Scott McTominay.
In a tweet on X, the former Serbian international lambasted the club for selling the Lancaster-born footballer, who had given some thumping performances with the Manchester-based club.
Following this, Matic also applauded Napoli manager Antonio Conte and underscored his decision to rope in Scott McTominay as a smart move. It is worth noting that the Italian club has paid a prize of €30.50 million to Old Trafford for making this move happen.
A product of United’s youth academy,
McTominay, raised himself through the ranks to join the first team of the club in 2017. Making 255 appearances for the Men in Red, he has to find a new destination for himself, and that too beyond the English channels.
Considering both the prospects of this peculiar move it has been evident that many people are not happy with the way United’s management is making their calls.
On the other hand, it could also be understood that bringing the much-needed strength and depth to their squad, new talent is necessary to be roped in and that too in the midfield, is one of the most important aspects that needs to be taken care of on a priority.
