I think a quality young player coming here to give us his prime years after we haven't won the league in 9 years and have been in and out of the UCL has proper reasons to have reservations over coming here.
We're still one of the biggest football club in the world but our performance on the pitch fall short of the best. Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, PSG in recent years have outperformed us and most players would rather go to this clubs than us.
It will take some convincing that our new structure and ETH can take us back to the top competing on a regular basis with this clubs, so its understandable that Frenkie De Jong would have his reservations, ideally we should target players at clubs who would see United as an obvious step up, but this is a unique scenario due to Barca financial issues and ETH relationship with the player.
So I choose to trust the club and be patient to see were this all end up, it won't be long before we know if this would go through or if we have to walk away from this.
