“Appalling decision”. Souness slams Man United management for selling McTominay

The sale of Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay happened quite some time ago, but the public remains bewildered by such a move from the club's management.

Details: Former Southampton and Newcastle manager Graeme Souness believes this decision can only be described as mismanagement, as not only did Manchester United lose a good player for next to nothing, but his replacement cost a hundred million pounds.

Quote: “How Manchester United regrets selling McTominay, whose penalty secured Scotland's victory in Greece on Thursday night. He is a fantastic modern footballer. An energetic workhorse who scores crucial goals. He was 27 years old and wasn't a financial burden to United with his salary when the club's decision-makers thought selling him to Napoli for 25 million pounds was a great idea.

They spent 58 million pounds on an aging 30-year-old Casemiro and paid him 370 thousand pounds a week. And another 42 million pounds on Manuel Ugarte. The total transfer outlay amounted to 100 million pounds. Can anyone at United raise their hand and say: 'That was my call.'

Because it was an appalling decision. A perfect example of industrial-scale mismanagement in this club since Fergie's departure. McTominay has blossomed at Napoli. Perhaps United should ask themselves how much it would cost to bring him back,” writes Souness in his column for the Daily Mail.

Reminder: Previously, former Manchester United player Jesse Lingard admitted that he still follows Manchester United.
