#3 The dread of Ed at United
Martial is just 22 years old. He was signed by United at the age of 19. At that time he was the most expensive teenager in football.
He was meant to go on to great things; some even heralded him as the successor to Cristiano Ronaldo.
The rumor mill suggests that Woodward is afraid of Martial succeeding and such a decision coming back to bite United. The club’s hierarchy also does want to exchange Martial, a 22-year-old with significant resale value, with 30-year-olds such as Perisic and Willian, who are preferred by Mourinho.
Conclusion: The business heads at United believe that replacing Martial with someone much older is a bad business deal.
