Pellistri transfer: The right time for Man United to sell
Pellistri has struggled to make an impression at United so far, so it perhaps makes sense that the club are now willing to allow the 22-year-old to leave in a permanent deal.
Pellistri has previously had loan spells away from MUFC, spending time at both Alaves and Granada, but it’s fair to say he hasn’t done that much with those opportunities either.
It now looks like Pellistri will have to try to revive his career elsewhere, and it could be that moving to a less competitive league at this stage would be the right kind of step for him.
United have had a busy summer and may even be keen to bring in more signings, so making a few sales of players like this and other backups could be important to ensure they remain in line with Financial Fair Play regulations.
