According to breaking news from the BBC, Premier League clubs have voted to extend their summer transfer window in line with the rest of Europe to 17:00 on 1st September – but these Manchester United supporters don’t think Ed Woodward and the board will benefit from the news.
Woodward, who managed to make two much-needed senior additions to United’s first team in January through signing Bruno Fernandes in a £47 million deal and Odion Ighalo on loan, has been at the mercy of supporters recently for his transfer conduct – with many fans protesting against the executive vice-chairman along with the Glazers.
Previously, the summer transfer window shut on the eve of the new Premier League season after a past vote from top flight clubs – but after two seasons of doing things differently – they have opted to revert back to the traditional cut-off point of late August/early September. Indeed, while this may seem like positive news, United supporters have hinted that it will make no difference with Woodward overseeing business.
