Inspired by the best ever transfer thread. But a different take which has been our best ever sale of a player? Not about our biggest transfers, as clearly we would all have rather kept Ronaldo than get £80m.
a couple come to mind:
. Dion Dublin - bought for £1m. Unfortunately got injured, but we bought Eric as a result. Sold for £2m to to double our money, and £2m was big at the time. Went on to have a really good career, and such a nice guy. But never a United player.
. Morgan Schneiderlin - awful player. Sold for £20m rising to £24m. Did brilliantly to get most of our money back on a £25m purchase.
. Lukaku. Not wanted, playing badly, poor attitude. We massively overpaid for him in the first place. What a summer, when your choices are Lukaku and Morata...
Somehow we got in the region of £73m for him. If it wasn’t for Conte we would have made a big loss.
what have you got?
