MU has made one of the biggest mistakes in football when leaving Scott McTominay leaving Old Trafford.
MU sold mctominay to Napoli last summer for £ 27.5 million. Since joining the Serie A champion, McTominay has become a completely different player. He quickly won the hearts of fans, helping Napoli become the champion in the first season in Naples.
MU has left McTominay to help them comply with the rules of profit and sustainability. However, the former MU coach, Benni McCarthy, who worked with McTominay under the former coach Erik Ten Hag, said that selling the 28 -year -old player was a big mistake, based on his performance, he showed to Napoli.
McCarthy said: “Of course, there are many different reasons that make you sometimes sell homegrown players. When they leave, profits allow you to sign a contract with more players.”
“Although saying that, it was one of the biggest mistakes in football when he left. He was born to play for MU. Maybe Scotty was not the most technical, but he had the spirit of fighting, and I thought it was what they would get back to Mathus CuHa.”
“Scotty is a player you search in the dressing room for your team to go where you want. Let him leave with a small transfer fee is a very unfortunate thing. I think everyone in MU regrets that decision.”
McCarthy also revealed that he drove MU to sign a contract with Cody Gakpo – but in the end, the Red Devils' scout did not agree.
He added: “Gakpo is the person we want most and missed. I think he is the first player we sat down and discussed, and decided that he was the right player.”
