Manchester United may have seriously messed up with selling Ethan Laird to Birmingham City – he’s had a sensational start to the season.
The right-back moved this summer for a measly £750,000. We do have a good sell-on clause on this, as perThe Athletic– but it’s seriously pennies for a player of his quality.
The right-back has єɴԀured numerous spells on loan over the past few seasons and has accumulated over 50 Championship appearances at various teams. This summer, he was deemed to never make it atOld Traffordand was subsequently sold.
However, after the flying start to the 23/24 season… will United live to regret this?
Laird is amongst the Championship’s very best
Over the start of the season, the young full-back ranks amongst the very best the Championship has to offer.
Going off ‘WhoScored‘s’ ratings, the ex-United star currently sits ranked sixth of the league’s highest performers, with an average rating per game of 7.8.
