Since Sir Alex Ferguson’s departure, Manchester United has seen a significant decline, not just in footballing performance but in overall management.
The way the club is run has been described as chaotic, which can sometimes impact other teams.
For example, West Ham United has found it notoriously challenging to negotiate with United due to their tendency to overvalue players or change terms at the last minute.
Despite these difficulties, it appears that West Ham is on the verge of finalizing a deal with Manchester United for Aaron Wan-Bissaka. This move is crucial for United, as they are eager to sign Noussair Mazraoui, making Wan-Bissaka’s sale necessary.
Given this situation, one would expect Manchester United to ensure that Wan-Bissaka remains fit and the deal proceeds smoothly. However, their approach has been anything but conventional.
It was especially questionable to feature Wan-Bissaka extensively in a preseason match against Liverpool, as noted by journalist Ryan Taylor, who criticized the decision.
Taylor tweeted, “Aaron Wan-Bissaka played more minutes (83) than any outfield Man Utd player last night in a 3-0 defeat to Liverpool.
Crazy given the West Ham agreement is close.” He further commented on the situation, noting, “Other moving parts (Noussair Mazraoui) but emphasizes how badly Erik ten Hag is currently stretched due to injuries.”
To complicate matters, Wan-Bissaka sustained minor injuries during the match, raising concerns about the potential impact on the transfer.
Fortunately, these injuries are expected to be minor and should not hinder the move to West Ham.
Nonetheless, this situation highlights the imprudence of Manchester United’s decision to risk Wan-Bissaka’s health during a crucial period.
