"HERE WE GO! On August 9, Belgian midfielder Dendoncker will transfer from Anderlecht to the Premier League newly promoted Wolves, and the transfer fee may reach 23 million euros."

"If the formalities are handled properly, Dendoncker is likely to start in the first round of the league against Stoke City on August 12, making his debut for this English newly promoted team."

"The two parties have reached an agreement on the contract, and Anderlecht has to look for other candidates to fill their midfield vacancies again. Manchester United, which was previously reported to be the most likely to introduce Dendoncker, is still No action. "

"They were hindered in the process of introducing midfielders. After failing to introduce Matic and Dier, their erratic pursuit of Dendoncker caused dissatisfaction among the players. It is said that this is also the reason why Dendoncker chose Wolves, which is much weaker than Manchester United on paper."

"Wolves' offer was very quick. After three rounds of negotiations, Wolves and Anderlecht reached an agreement to pay 23 million euros directly. This cash can also help the Belgian giants, who are no longer in the limelight, find other candidates..."

A stone stirs up a thousand waves.

In an instant, the glorious deeds of the league's newly promoted team competing with Manchester United for players and winning have been spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred. The young midfielder who is sought after by giants such as Atletico Madrid, Manchester United, Inter Milan, and RB Leipzig actually chose the most inconspicuous one among them!

And the one with the least sense of existence!

Because before that, there was no news that Wolves were in contact with Dendoncker, but when he was interviewed, Dendoncker revealed that Wolves were actually the first to pay attention to him.

"There is an old saying in China, called 'make a fortune in silence'." Wei Le smiled and said to the stunned reporters in the media seats, "You may think that this is just a whim of ours."

"But is it true? No. Although we dare not say that we are the first team to discover Dendoncker's talent, we should be the first to contact Dendoncker."

"Why? Because we don't want to miss such an excellent player."

Dendoncker smiled and looked at Wei Le, obviously very happy with Wei Le's praise.

Such a photo of the head coach and the player smiling at each other was also used as the front-page headline of the Manchester Evening News football page, with a question in the middle: "Manchester United, what are you doing?"

[It is an indisputable fact that Manchester United's recruitment has stagnated. 】

【After sending captain Rooney away, Manchester United only completed two transactions, one of which was to bring central defender Lindelof from Benfica for 35 million euros. 】

【The quality of the Swedish central defender needs to be tested in the next league, and the other transaction, the choice of nearly 100 million euros to introduce Lukaku is already questionable enough. Fans generally believe that this transfer has a very serious premium. 】

【In this case, it is undoubtedly not wise to spend such a huge transfer fee just to intercept Chelsea. This unwiseness has always been there, not just reflected in Lukaku's transfer. 】

【In the process of introducing midfielders, Manchester United has always played the role of "raising the price". They have been linked with Nainggolan, Dier, Matic and Dendoncker. 】

【But in the end, Manchester United was rejected in the transfers of Dier, Nainggolan and Matic, and then turned to Dendoncker like a life-saving straw, making Dendoncker realize that he was not the first choice in Manchester United's mind. 】

【Dendoncker's choice of Wolves is enough to show that Manchester United's reputation is no longer as good as it used to be. Manchester United and its managers must accept a reality, that is, Manchester United is no longer the invincible one in the Sir Alex Ferguson era. 】

【The real question is how Manchester United should fill the vacancy of defensive midfielder. Who is this candidate, how much will it cost, and whether it is really a better choice than Dendoncker. 】

Later, other media also noticed that Wolves only spent 23 million euros to complete the Dendoncker deal, which is a world of difference from the 35 million euros that initially made Manchester United hesitate.

Since Wolves can take Dendoncker for 23 million euros, why can't Manchester United?

What? You said Anderlecht's offer is 35 million? You won't talk?

Why will Wolves talk?

Manchester United's recruitment department is under great pressure and has toThe negotiations for Matic were immediately restarted. Chelsea also seized this opportunity to make a fortune from Wolves and offered a flat price of 45 million euros.

Accept it if you can, and get out if you can't!

Manchester United had to be a sucker for once.

Manchester United signed Matic for 45 million euros a few days later. The midfielder, who had expressed his interest in going to Manchester United in July, did not actually come to the team until the start of the Premier League.

At the press conference announcing Matic's joining, basically no one was paying attention to Matic's future. Most reporters' questions focused on Chelsea's outrageous transfer price and Manchester United's outrageous acceptance.

The atmosphere of the press conference was very serious, and some media later reported that they were not allowed to enter the press conference room for interviews. The meticulous interview ended quickly, which was in sharp contrast to the Wolves press conference full of laughter and joy.

Manchester United legend Gary Neville also expressed dissatisfaction with Manchester United's transfer operation. He believes that Manchester United's transfer decision should be more decisive. He really doesn't understand why things that could be decided in the old Sir Alex Ferguson era take so long now.

If it was a month earlier, or even half a month earlier, Matic could catch up with Manchester United's training camp. But now, Matic, who is completely unfamiliar with Manchester United's tactical play and seriously lacks game status, will have to fight in the Premier League with the team.

Some people who are curious about the schedule suddenly discovered that Wolves will have a direct dialogue with Manchester United in the second round of the league. Manchester United will welcome the challenge of Wolves at home.

This is not the first time Wolves have faced Manchester United. Last season, Wolves defeated Manchester United in two home and away games, entered the League Cup, and finally won the championship. What's interesting is that when everyone summarized the reasons why Manchester United failed to beat Wolves in two rounds, one of the most important points was that Wolves almost controlled the midfield in both games, while Manchester United almost took the initiative to give up the control of the midfield.

In the second round of direct confrontation, if nothing unexpected happens, Matic and Wolves' Dendoncker are expected to start. This adds a new dimension to the previously thought-to-be-no-suspense match between the traditional powerhouses of the league and the newly promoted team.

What if Wolves can beat Manchester United twice in the two recent direct confrontations?

What if?
