Sticchi Damiani (Lecce President) on Patrick Dorgu’s move to Manchester United:

“It hurt because I had to contradict myself. I truly thought I wouldn’t be selling anyone in January, but we didn’t expect that increase from United. We were also taken aback by the English club’s absolute unwillingness to postpone the deal until the following June.

Technically, we were comfortable. We had Pierotti, who was ready. At that historic moment, Dorgu was paradoxically a replaceable player. Despite his great value, because he was systematically deployed on the right, as an inverted winger. A position in which he lost much of his potential.

I’m seeing him back in his natural position [RW] in Manchester, where he devastates opponents.”
