Long in negotiations with OL and Juninho, Facundo Pellistri will not come to OL. The 18-year-old Uruguayan winger has signed a five-year contract (plus an optional year) with Manchester United, who have a second big hope after the arrival of Amad Diallo Traoré.
No transfer amount was disclosed but OL was close to agreeing with Penarol for a fee of 5 million euros plus 2 million euros in bonuses before the Red Devils came to turn the situation around. Pellistri is due to arrive in the coming days, while his club trainer wanted to keep him until this winter.
