Ian Wright says Manchester United made "big mistake" not signing Liverpool star

Ian Wright believes Manchester United have made a "big mistake" not signing Liverpool star Sadio Mane. The Senegal international has been heavily linked with the move to Old Trafford before joining Reds back in 2016. Since then he has become one of the key players in Jurgen Klopp's side, winning the Premier League, Champions League, Club World Cup and the Premier League Golden Boot with the team. Wright is a huge admirer of Mane and thinks the 28-year-old is "one of the best" attackers in the world. He believes United lived to regret not securing the striker's move four years ago. "Remember Man United were all over him, you know," former Arsenal man said on his new podcast Wrighty’s House. "I think they spoke to him but he said no. Manchester United weren’t right for him. "Again, you feel like Man United made a big mistake by not making that signing. By not being in the position to make that signing. "As a football team, they were nowhere near giving him the kind of philosphy, what they’re going to do to attract a player like Mane. He’s now easily one of the best in the world."
