He could well get there one day but yeah teams like Man U, Liverpool don't loan out the new Ronaldos to Dun Utd. I agree. Dundee Utd are mid table / bottom 6 club.

Naisys Tackle Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 It's a quite magnificent coup for United and it also justifies Tony Ashgar's patience in the market, when the panic button can be easy to hit. Levitt is an excellent footballer and at 22 years old, United have landed a player at an ideal time in his development. Moreover, the muted fee in the region of £300,000 is an absolute steal for a player of Levitt's ability, and undoubted potential. It's a considerable outlay for United - within their top ten most expensive signings - but it's a shrewd investment as Levitt will likely be sold for a considerable profit in the next few seasons. The talented midfielder progressed through a prestigious academy at Manchester United and he's already a full Welsh international, destined to go to the World Cup in Qatar. Every transfer has an element of risk - especially when paying such a big fee - but Levitt's addition is a sensible move. Not only does it improve Ross' side on the park but it will most likely net a financial boost on United's balance sheets in the future - speculate to accumulate. It also represents a different strategy from a club that's developed a reputation for bringing young players through their academy before moving them on for a profit. The conveyor belt bringing United's youth into the first-team continues to accelerate - Courts utilised 15 players from the academy last season. But Levitt's arrival represents a 'player trading model' that's implemented, to varying degrees of success, amongst the biggest clubs in Scotland. United should also be applauded for displaying ambition and it's refreshing that Scottish clubs are showing intent ahead of a fascinating new season, with five clubs embarking on a European adventure.
