DON’T FALL INTO £100m TRAP, OLE
OLE GUNNAR Solskjaer may have announced that he won’t be wasting Manchester United’s money in the transfer market, but stories continue circulating about a £100million move for Jadon Sancho, and other sizeable bids for Declan Rice or Callum Hudson-Odoi. And that’s the point. Sancho is a fine player but he’s also 19, Rice is 20, Hudson-Odoi 18. So Sancho could be the best £100m United have spent, or a disappointment and Solskjaer (above) can’t guarantee either way. No manager can. Like Jose Mourinho and Louis van Gaal before him, Solskjaer will back a hunch, and in the current market, a very expensive one.
