Chelsea boss has dig at United purchase
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has aimed a subtle dig at Manchester United’s big-money signing of Luke Shaw, the Daily Mail reports.
The former Southampton youngster, a £30m signing for United this summer, had also been linked with Chelsea in recent months after establishing himself as one of the most promising young players in England.
However, Mourinho believes spending the amount United spent on him would have unsettled the other members of his squad.
“If we pay to a 19-year-old boy what we were being asked for, for Luke Shaw, we are dead,” he explained “We kill our stability with Financial Fair Play. We kill the stability in our dressing room.”
