Sir Alex Ferguson has made a mistake, Sportsmail online
can exclusively reveal.
No sooner had the Manchester United manager secured the services
of striker Manucho last month, than he has loaned the Angola Africa
Cup of Nations star out to Panathinaikos.
And Sportsmail online has uncovered video evidence which
suggests that Sir Alex is missing a trick by allowing the
24-year-old centre forward to head to Greece.
Before you all shout out that he's not needed at Old Trafford,
take a look at the belter Manucho scored against Egypt and imagine
him in the same side as Ronaldo and Rooney.
Manucho signed a three-year contract with United during last
month's transfer window after moving from Angolan side Petro
Athletico.
"After the Africa Cup of Nations I will return to Luanda and
then head to Athens," Manucho said. "I am looking forward to
playing in Greece before hopefully being a success at Old
Trafford."
Ferguson, who has steered United to nine League titles,
explained: "We have farmed him out to Panathinaikos for the rest of
the season as he will get games there. "They have a Portuguese
coach Jose Peseiro and as Manucho speaks Portuguese, it is
comfortable for him."
But here at Sportsmail online, we think Fergie's had a senior
moment. Take a look at this footage and see for yourself.
However Fergie's old rival, former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho
doesn't think the striker will ever return to Old Trafford.
Mourinho said: "If you asked me whether I believe one day he
will play for Manchester United I have my doubts.
"I do not know if he will progress so well that he can play for
one of the best teams in the world. "But he is clearly a very good
talent. He's ready to play in European football. "He will go to a
good club in Greece, with a good coach who I believe can help him
in his development as a player."
