Britain's "Daily Mirror" said that Manchester United striker Edgar Cavani has conducted in-depth negotiations with Argentine super giant Boca Youth and is ready to return to South America to play. He lost his chance at Manchester United this season and is about to leave on a free transfer. Many European clubs have also approached the 35-year-old Uruguayan centre-forward, but Boca Juniors are most likely to get him.
Cavani, who United actively retained last season, became another victim of the contract renewal curse. He was ready to leave, but at the end of the season he scored a series of goals to save the savior, scoring 17 goals in all competitions, conquering Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and Manchester United sent a new one-year contract with a weekly salary of 250,000 pounds, which the Uruguayan striker gladly accepted.
I thought that Cavani would become the main center of Manchester United, killing all four sides, but unexpectedly before the start of the season, C Ronaldo suddenly returned, coupled with the 35-year-old Cardazzo's absence from pre-season training due to personal affairs, poor physical fitness led to injuries, this season 46 games, he only played 17 times, scored 2 goals, assisted 2 times, reduced to glass people, attendance rate of less than 37%.
The Mirror revealed that when Manchester United renewed his contract last year, they assured Cavani that they would not bring in another striker, but after convincing him to abandon the transfer, the club quickly tore up the promise, and the Uruguayan striker expressed anger and angrily denounced the high-level backlash. And the story of his contract extension is not the only evidence of Manchester United's bizarre operations in recent years.
In United's 1-1 draw with Chelsea in the last round of the Premier League, Bruno Fernandez was once again out of the question, with the goal drought extended to 10 games and no assists in the last nine games. To be precise, since the salary increase to the £240,000 contract extension for the Red Devils, B fee has no pass and no shot, and also conceded a key penalty.
But Manchester United fans have become accustomed to it, and after the club renewed a player' contract, his performance has become almost the signature plot of the Red Devils. In fact, even the Manchester United manager can not escape the curse of contract renewal. Before the 2019 regularization, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer led the team to kill all four parties, including the Champions League miracle reversal of Paris Saint-Germain to advance, but once a new contract was signed, the Red Devils of Solskjaer were suddenly difficult to win.
Last season, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer led the team to a runner-up in the Premier League, and Manchester United, with another year left on his contract, can't wait to send a new three-year contract, with salaries soaring from £7.5 million to £10 million. As a result, the more luxurious lineup created by the Norwegians was vulnerable and eventually overshadowed.
If Cavani was abandoned because of the return of C Ronaldo, it can also be explained by the uncertainty of football, then the renewal of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and B Fee is completely a drawback brought about by the inexplicable operating model of Manchester United clubs. The manager still has a one-year contract, which could have been used as the ultimate test of his coaching, motivating him to lead the team to achieve better results, but Manchester United chose to renew the signing with a high salary, hoping that the manager would have no worries, which backfired.
Fernandez's contract extension was used by Ronnick as evidence that United can still attract superstars, but this can only be said to be another manifestation of the club's strange operation. The Portuguese midfielder still has a three-and-a-half-year contract, plus a one-year priority renewal clause, at which point the renewal will only make the team's salary structure more chaotic and make the new coach more stressful, after all, a core player with a weekly salary of 240,000 pounds can certainly not be placed on the bench for a long time without playing the main force.
Other United players who have performed sluggishly or disappeared after the contract extension include Eric Bai, Martial, Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo and Juan Mata. There is also the British star Lingard is also another manifestation of Manchester United's mysterious contract renewal operation, last year he rented West Ham excellent, could have sold at a high price, but Manchester United chose to stay and try to persuade him to renew his contract, and then can sell more expensive. As a result, he only ended up with two empty fortunes, and Lin Huang, who could not play this season, has decided to transfer freely and leave.
The Manchester Evening News quoted Manchester United internal sources as saying that it was the former club's executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward who pushed for the renewal of the player's contract, which he believed would guarantee their resale value and ensure that the club's assets did not depreciate, but due to the long-term contracts and high salaries of these marginal players, Manchester United has been difficult to sell successfully.
Interim manager Ronnick suggested that the club must change this operation and that it should be up to the new manager Tenhag to decide whether to renew Manchester United's existing players. For the new contracts of England homegrown players Marcus Rashford, Luke Shaw and Maguire, who are seeking a raise, the club must avoid making the same mistake again.
