Mirror: To avoid repeating the same mistakes, Ratcliffe has made it clear that he will not bring in Lewandowski
6686 Sports, October 26 According to the "Mirror", Ratcliffe has blocked Manchester United's purchase of Lewandowski.
Lewandowski has entered the last year of his contract and has not yet received a contract extension from Barcelona. The Polish forward is expected to leave the team on a free transfer next summer.
It is reported that Amorim has long admired Lewandowski and believes that signing him will bring a positive effect to the team and assist the development of some players.
However, reports claim that Ratcliffe has made it clear that Manchester United will not be as obsessed with recruiting players who are entering the final stage of their careers as in the past. "Mirror" stated that Manchester United's past introductions of Ronaldo, Varane and Bastian Schweinsteiger were ultimately considered serious mistakes. The club invested heavily in transfer fees and wages.
Lewand’s weekly salary in Barcelona reaches 540,000 pounds. He is believed to be allowed to go to other teams to find new challenges next summer. However, Ratcliffe hopes to reduce Manchester United’s salary expenses and will not consider Lewandowski as a signing option.
