Man Utd missed out on record signing who chose Liverpool

Manchester United had a record deal agreed to sign a player who instead chose to join Liverpool. He has now said he is glad he waited for the move to Anfield. The Mirror reports United missed out on what would have been a new club-record signing when he picked their bitter rivals instead. He has not named himself but the admission is a rare look at how close United came. Liverpool fans will enjoy it. United fans less so.
