TA voted the worst transfer in the Premier League summer window: Sheshko ranked first with 6 votes, Trafford with 3 votes, and Wirtz with 1 vote
The Athletic conducted its annual agent survey and interviewed 20 agents, asking them to choose the worst transfer operation in the Premier League this summer.
Among the 20 agents, 6 voted for Manchester United to spend 76.5 million euros to sign Sheshko as the worst transfer in the Premier League summer window. One agent said: "The transfer fee is too high and the timing is too early." Another claimed: "Manchester United was forced to complete this signing." A third commented: "Such a high transfer fee only resulted in mediocre combat power."
Manchester City's 31.2 million euros to sign Trafford received 3 votes. An agent said: "I just think this is a wrong decision. Traford could have been the core at Burnley, or went to Newcastle to get more Stable starting opportunity. Now he is sitting on the Manchester City bench, backing up the world's best goalkeeper. "Another agent also questioned Manchester City's decision-making errors: "Spending almost 40 million to buy a goalkeeper, and then buying another a few weeks later? "
Other transfers that received votes include Chelsea's signing of Gittens (this team is completely unsuitable for him), Liverpool's signing of Isak (the transfer fee is too high and the transfer method is not decent enough), Liverpool's signing of Wirtz, etc.
