At the beginning of the summer, it was reported that Ed Woodward was willing to sell several players this transfer window. But unfortunately, United have sold only two players, out of whom Sanchez was a free transfer. After Dean Henderson’s contract extension, it was sure for Sergio Romero to leave the club, but United couldn’t get him a buyer which has enraged his wife.
Dean Henderson had earlier been handed a contract extension till 2025, with very high wages as well. This also meant that Romero would now be United’s third-choice goalkeeper, meaning zero game-time for the Argentine international. Though several clubs were trying to sign Romero the United board didn’t allow his sale, as the offers weren’t supposedly good enough.
But Sergio Romero’s wife took to Instagram to express her anger and frustration as her husband wasn’t allowed to move from United. Everton were very close to having Romero on-loan but the United board was adamant that Romero can only leave on a permanent transfer. With very high wages as well, United didn’t do themselves a favour by not letting Romero go, which again showed United’s incompetence in the transfer market.
Sergio Romero has been a loyal servant of Manchester United and has always been one of the most disciplined and sought-after guys at United, and surely deserved a move.
