MU activates the most expensive "blockbuster" in history

The Daily Mail reported that MU's board of directors has planned to strengthen their squad right now. Chairman Ed Woodward wants to prioritize adding a top-class central defender and the name they have chosen is Napoli's Kalidou Koulibaly.

Therefore, the Daily Mail affirmed that the "Red Devils" will do everything to own the super center-back of Napoli. Also according to this newspaper, the Old Trafford team will spend at least 90 million pounds to convince the Italian team to release the player, thereby making Koulibaly the most expensive center-back in history, surpassing the record of 75 million pounds of Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool).

Most recently, coach Sarri admitted: "Hazard is 28 years old, if he wants to leave, I think he has to go. Of course, I hope the opposite. I hope he wants to stay here with us to progress. Hazard has the potential to become the best player in Europe at the moment. Sometimes, he is happy for even less things."

"My job is to help Hazard improve and put him in the best position. Sometimes I have to say those things. That's normal, that's the job."

Visiting Atalanta in the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup, coach Max Allegri used a very strong squad with the presence of stars such as Ronaldo, Dybala, Bernardeschi and Khedira. However, the Italian giant had a lackluster match, especially in attack.

Ronaldo missed quite a few good chances to finish, while Atalanta strictly followed the defensive counter-attacking strategy to score 2 goals in the first half. By the end of the match, Daniel Zapata completed his double and sealed a 3-0 victory for the home team. This result caused the Bianconeri to leave the Italian Cup early. In the previous match, Roma were even more miserable when they were destroyed 7-1 by Fiorentina.

This embarrassing defeat caused The Blues to lose the 4th position on the rankings to Arsenal.
