According to sources in the UK, since the Winter 2024 transfer window opened, Erik Ten Hag’s No. 1 transfer target has been Crystal Palace striker Michael Olise, but this deal has caused problems in the Red Devils’ system. glitch.
Sports Bibble said that is because the Dutch strategist’s interest and Olise’s desire to sign is completely contrary to the thoughts, calculations and analyzes of the team of experts in the transfer area. team concessions.
It is known that experts at Old Trafford believe that Alejandro Garnacho, Amad Diallo, Facundo Pellistri and even Antony are more than enough for a position in the club’s corridor right now. The fact that Erik Ten Hag’s students are playing poorly cannot only be solved by buying new players, and MU’s budget is hardly enough to pay for newly increased salaries.
There is a detail emphasized by Sports Bibble that if you can “push” weak players and free up salary funds, Erik Ten Hag will be able to be more comfortable in his goals.
In addition, ESPN also said that there is a confidential agreement between the two teams to swap Aaron Wan-Bissaka with Michael Olise for a reasonable fee. However, that is still just a rumor and the story cannot go any further in reality.
In addition, the English star just signed a new contract with Crystal Palace last summer 2023, in a deal that “overturned” Chelsea at the last minute, which will be valid for up to 4 years, so the price for Man Utd to have Breaking the contract would cost a lot of money at this point.
It can be seen that the fact that experts and staff at the team’s transfer team judged this deal to be unreasonable has very practical grounds. However, at a club, the captain’s authority is very great and if Ten Hag really wants Olise, he can absolutely do anything to do it.
