Manchester United’s transfer window was absolutely outstanding. Jose Mourinho came in as manager, and made some stunning acquisitions that only happen in video games. Paul Pogba, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Eric Bailly and Henrikh Mkhitaryan all became Red Devils to the delight of the fans.
Despite huge spending, we didn’t really see many big names leave the club on permanent deals, but not for the want of trying. However, Mourinho could be about to see the first big departure under his tenure happen in the January transfer window.
Reports in Italy state that Serie A giants Juventus are interested in acquiring the services of Matteo Darmian, when the January transfer window opens at the start of 2017.
The 26-year-old made a solid start to life at Manchester United, but as the season wore on his performances got worse and eventually he became a huge concern.
At this point his confidence must be totally shot, as he is yet to feature for Jose Mourinho. You’d imagine we’ll see him in the cup competitions however, and that’ll be a good chance for him to prove his worth.
