Joe Cole Calls Out Dan Ashworth: Did his £200m Worth of Transfers Set Manchester United Back a Year?

Joe Cole spoke about Dan Ashworth’s transfer decisions that impacted Manchester United’s recent performances.

Joe Cole said “Joe Cole has slammed Dan Ashworth, who has just left as Manchester United’s sporting director, for the ‘terrible’ transfer decisions that have set the club back 12 months.”

Cole further discussed the impact of these decisions on the current team’s capabilities.

Joe Cole said “Over the summer, United spent around £200m on just five players: Leny Yoro from Lille (£58.9m), Matthijs De Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich (£42.9m and £17.9m), Manuel Ugarte from PSG (£50m), and Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna (£36.5m). But their first transfer window was terrible – it probably set United back by a year.”
