'Blatant manipulation, there'll be mobile phone records!' - Sir Alex Ferguson’s fury at Daniel Levy over Man United youngster
15.07.2023 - 05:55 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Manchester United and Daniel Levy have not always seen eye to eye, most recently over the transfer availability of Harry Kane.
While sanctioning a sale this summer seems the smart thing to do, the Tottenham chairman sees it differently. United learned early on that Levy was going to play stubborn over Kane, maybe in fact because of the club’s poor 2022/23 season rather than in spite of it.
Rumours suggest Spurs could dangle a new contract that would see the striker earn £400,000-a-week and if he agrees then it might be their most important signing for a number of years.
Levy is a shrewd businessman, not only in cashing in on players but ensuring his squad retains a substantial value. His approach has left many clubs frustrated down the years, including United.

Sir Alex Ferguson was forced to wait until deadline day to prise Dimitar Berbatov away from White Hart Lane in 2008 for £30m - a fee that made the eyes water back then. Four-and-a-half years later, Levy was subjected to the wrath of Sir Alex over the signing of one of his former players.
Zeki Fryers had been tipped for a bright future when he joined the long line of academy graduates after making his senior debut in September 2011 in a League Cup tie against Leeds.
By 19, the centre-back-cum-left-back had earned six senior appearances including two Premier League outings and a cameo in the Champions League. The teenager was eager to progress so decided to look for another club with better game time prospects when he turned down United’s three-year contract renewal.
