Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes was surprised by a decision made by the club during the summer transfer window. The Red Devils made some big signings like Leny Yoro, Manuel Ugarte, Matthijs de Ligt, Joshua Zirkzee, and Noussair Mazraoui. They also let go of players like Scott McTominay, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, and Mason Greenwood. However, what shocked Fernandes the most was the sale of young midfielder Maxi Oyedele to Legia Warsaw.
Oyedele, who has Polish and Nigerian roots, has been performing well at Legia and even earned a call-up to the Polish national team. Legia’s manager Goncalo Feio, who is also Portuguese like Fernandes, praised Oyedele’s abilities and expressed his surprise that Manchester United allowed him to leave.
Fernandes was impressed by Oyedele’s performances in preseason with United and believed he had a lot of potential. The midfielder’s physical presence and skills on the ball were highlighted by Feio, who emphasized the importance of Oyedele’s development at Legia.
After leaving Manchester United, Oyedele thanked the club for the 12 years he spent there and the memories he made. He expressed his gratitude to the coaches, staff, and fans, and mentioned that the club would always be his home.
It is clear that Oyedele’s departure from Manchester United was unexpected, but it seems like he is ready to embrace the next chapter of his career at Legia Warsaw. The young midfielder has a bright future ahead of him, and Polish football fans can look forward to seeing more from him in the coming years.
