United's frustrated signings

Like every summer, Manchester United, one of the richest teams on the planet, is one of the biggest agitators on the market. Or one of the biggest rumors generated, if we are more precise. The red devils, as if it were a rough diamond, needed a few strokes to polish the potential of a template began to germinate last year. Contrasting names have arrived (Cavani and Alex Telles), players of the present with a great future (Van de Beek) and two pearls: one that will arrive, at the earliest, in January (Amad Diallo Traoré, a promising 18-year-old winger from Atalanta for whom they have paid 30 million, more variables) and another (Pellistri) that will be part of the squad from now on.

However, there are many who have stayed on the road, among them, the great objective and summer soap opera: Jadon Sancho. Although the Bale, Reguilón, Grealish and company they have also seen his name related to those of Solskjaer at some point.

Jadon sancho

Borussia Dortmund asked for 120 million and United did not raise 100. Thus began the summer and thus ended. The 20-year-old winger will continue to delight the fans borusser, although his wish was to land in the Premier League. His past citizen gives an even more special aura to your signing. Next year, they will charge again.

Gareth Bale

Manchester United and Gareth Bale seemed doomed to join paths sometime. When Mourinho was in charge of the Red Devils, they tried to take over the Welshman with a checkbook. Madrid responded and renewed him. The millionaire renovation that has complicated his departure so much. This year, the white team preferred United's offer, however, the player preferred the romance of a homecoming. Tottenham won the first battle.

Sergio Reguilon

And also the second. Tottenham and United crossed again with a common goal. On this occasion, Sergio Reguilón. Luke Shaw has never been convinced at Old Trafford and the arrival of a left-back seemed a priority and Regi it fit like a glove on the Lancashire idea. Finally, the Spurs they accepted the white buyback conditions and in Manchester they had to 'settle' with Alex Telles.

Federico Chiesa

The initial piece of the domino effect of the last day of the market was also shuffled as an alternative to Sancho. Although his attempt received a clear response from Fiorentina. 60 million or nothing. From Old Trafford they responded with a loan offer with a lower purchase option than Juve. For this reason, Federico Chiesa headed to Turin at the last minute, when United already knew they were losers.

Ben chillwel

And we return to the left side. If they fought for Reguilón it was because before they received another door slammed, that of Leicester when asking for Ben Chillwel. Chelsea's titanic project was willing to shell out more money than a much more timid United. End of story. In an auction, the one who bids the highest wins, it is useless to be second.

Jack grealish

He peaky blinder from Aston Villa it came to be almost done when the summer window had barely drawn the curtain. Yet again, trying to cut expenses left them composed and starless. 88 million was worth the villain playmaker, an amount that United did not reach and the player renewed. He will continue to get kicked in Villa Park.

James maddison

Maddison and Grealish, Grealish and Maddison. Two sides of the same coin. Leicester's lofty claims were not met by a United whose main targets (Sancho, Grealish and Maddison) at the beginning of the summer are still in the team that finished last season. The one from Leicester, like that of Aston Villa, renewed for an astronomical figure before the doubts of Ed Woodward and co.

Kalidou koulibaly

Manchester United needs to strengthen the defensive plot, That is something that was suspected before the already famous 1-6 against Tottenham. Thus, they competed with City to get Koulibaly out of San Paolo. Di Laurentiis is not one of those who gives his arm to twist and the Senegalese will continue in Naples, since nobody paid the 80 million that the top leader was asking for partenopeo. They brought Guardiola to Rúben Dias, Solskjaer … they sold Smalling …

Ousmane Dembélé

Until the last minute they tried to convince the player. In this case, Barça agreed to let the extreme go, for the right price. However, the Frenchman is confident in his chances and wants to succeed at Can Barça. The offer was 60 million and was rejected by the Blaugrana team. Perhaps a bigger bet would have made Dembélé and Barça change their minds. Be that as it may, another defeat.

Ismaila Sarr

The Plan E? from United, after failing to get hold of Sancho, neither with Grealish, nor with Chiesa, nor with Dembélé. The Watford winger, which also rang for Klopp's Liverpool, was a good opportunity. Again, the price ruined the negotiation. Watford rejected 45 million euros from Liverpool for the 22-year-old Senegalese and they were not willing to make discounts, no matter how much his descent to the Championship was consummated last year.
