Antony, who is the second highest transfer fee ever for Manchester United.

Will Manchester United's wallet be firmly closed in the English Premier League? Recently, a CEO of Manchester United drew attention by saying that he would be wary of overpay.

Global sports media ESPN quoted Manchester United CEO Omar Verada's remarks on the 3rd and said, "Manchester United will not pay ransom in future transfer deals."

"In the past, Manchester United has been accused of paying excessive amounts to players in terms of transfer fees and wages," the media said. In other words, the CEO's policy is to avoid dangerous transactions that could hamper the club in the future. In fact, in the past, Manchester United spent 95 million euros about 141 billion won in the process of forcibly recruiting Antony at the end of the summer transfer market in the 2022-23 season. This is the second highest transfer fee in Manchester United's history. However, Antony has been sluggish with 11 goals and 5 assists in only 83 games so far.

Meanwhile, Manchester United, which is known to have joined the new management in the upcoming transfer window, spent 200 million pounds 352 billion won on recruiting three players in the summer alone. Verada said, "We adhered to the rules. We were able to maintain the sustainability financially."

"If players are hired at an excessive cost, it can be counterproductive. We need to be able to consistently make the right decisions," he added.

Meanwhile, Manchester United made a rather unexpected decision by selling Scott McTominay Napoli, who played a key role in the team's reorganization process. Verada responded, "The team should not be bloated. It should be thin but also deep enough. The new UEFA-style schedule is very difficult. I wanted to keep the players motivated and thinking that they can play in the game. If the team is too big, it can cause problems."

In the case of Jadon Sancho, who was loaned to Chelsea, CEO Verada explained that he left the team because he was actually ranked fifth. 파워볼사이트

Finally, Verada said, "Just as McTominay wanted to find an opportunity for Napoli, Sancho wanted an opportunity for Chelsea. We are not in a position to kick a player out of a club."
