This is why players are not sold.
The British ‘Manchester Evening News’ reported on the 11th (Korean time), “Manchester United are demanding an unreasonable amount for Harry Maguire’s transfer fee.”
Manchester United are struggling in the transfer market this summer. He tried to recruit Kim Min-jae, but was frustrated due to the delay in the takeover process. Here, the sale of existing eat-and-run players is not going well.스포츠토토
A typical example is high-income earners like Maguire and Jadon Sancho. Man Utd is promoting the sale of players to raise transfer fees and reduce weekly wages, but it is canceled every time due to a ransom price that is too high for their skills.
In particular, Man U was shocked to learn that Maguire, whom they had given up, was demanding the same ransom as special defender Kim Min-jae.
The Manchester Evening News drew a line saying, “Man United have put a price tag of 50 million pounds (about 83.5 billion won) for Maguire’s ransom. However, among the teams that want him, no team will pay this money.”
Kim Min-jae is about to move to German champion Bayern Munich. Munich is known to have paid 50 million euros (approximately 71.4 billion won), the amount of a buyout (transfer permitted) to Kim Min-jae’s current team, Napoli. Now, with Kim Min-jae’s signature, the transfer to Munich will be officially completed.
If the transfer is confirmed, Kim Min-jae is expected to become the third most expensive defender in Bayern Munich’s history. Luca Hernandez, who paid 80 million euros (about 114.4 billion won), and Matteis de Ligt, who paid 67 million euros (about 95.7 billion won). Kim Min-jae is about to join a big club after three years in Europe.
He showed his best performances in all leagues, starting with Fenerbahce, passing through Naples, and ending with Munich. In particular, in Naples in the 2022-2023 season, Kim Min-jae stood out by revealing a clear presence in Serie A as well as in the UEFA Champions League.
At the same time, the interest of the big clubs in Kim Min-jae grew. In the end, several clubs tried to recruit Kim Min-jae, but Munich laughed. In Munich, coach Thomas Tuchel is known to have expressed satisfaction by directly checking Min-jae Kim and having a conversation.

In fact, the price set by Manchester United as a transfer fee is more than enough to recruit Kim Min-jae as a buyout. There are teams that want English captain Maguire, but they are not willing to meet Manchester United’s demand.
The Manchester Evening News predicted that “Man United will not bother selling Maguire because they also need a backup signing.”
The media emphasized, “The problem is that England national team coach Gareth Southgate asked Maguire to transfer to play in the starting lineup. A player may also want to leave the team and receive steady opportunities for the national team.”
