Dutch coach Louis van Gaal has said he considers "Manchester United" to be a commercial club, not a football club.
"Report" reports that his views were quoted by "Sky Sports".
"It is still a commercial club, not a football club. I have said this before. It is always difficult when the coach is not the one who decides which players will come to the team. I think it should be like this when the coach chooses the players, because in that case you can fire him if the team does not perform under his leadership. But when other people buy players, then you have a problem: you need the coach's knowledge and understanding, because he is the one who will train these players. For example, Arne Slot is the person who tells the technical manager at Liverpool which player to buy – pay attention to that," said Louis van Gaal.
Recall that Ruben Amorim's players finished last season in 15th place in the English Premier League table. The "Red Devils" also advanced to the final of the Europa League, but could not cope with Tottenham.
