Manchester United fans on Twitter have lamented the club’s inability to complete the signing of Lucas Moura after the attacker confirmed that he had an offer to join the Red Devils last January.
The 26-year old wrote himself into eternal Spurs folklore when his stunning hat-trick against Ajax fired the London club into their first ever Champions League final.
However, the Brazilian was nearly a United player, but talks broke down after the Red Devils only offered to take Lucas on a loan deal, according to The Guardian.
Instead, he signed with Spurs and has gone on to score ten goals in 32 Premier League appearances including a brace against Jose Mourinho’s United side in August.
This is not the first time that United have been unable to get a deal for Lucas over the line after seeing a €35m (£30.90m) bid rejected in the summer of 2012 before the Sao Paolo native moved to PSG in January 2013.
After watching the speedy forward light up the Champions League in the most decisive of fashions, United fans are unhappy that the club couldn’t finalise a deal for the 35-time Brazil international – with some pointing the finger at the much-maligned Ed Woodward.
