Man United have sold Facundo Pellistri to Panathinaikos and the Premier League club have included a massive 45% sell-on clause in the deal.
according to Fabrizio Romanothe Greek club has agreed to €6 million fixed fee plus €2 million add-ons for the full-back, which is very important for a player who is a constant starter in the Uruguay national team.
However, Man United have a buy-back option in Pellistri’s contract, which is valid until 2027; while the Premier League club have also successfully included a 45% sell-on clause.
This could be very important if the 22-year-old experiences a successful spell in Greece.
The Uruguayan is still very young and will further develop his talent with more minutes at Panathinaikos, which could make him an attractive option for a team in Europe’s big five leagues in the coming years.
Any significant fee that comes to the Greek giants, Man United will receive a large portion of it; although he can cause problems when the time comes, similar to Riccardo Calafiori’s situation with Bologna this summer.
what happened to him Facundo Pellistri to Man United?
Manchester United signed Pellstri from Uruguayan club Penarol in 2020, but during his four years at Old Trafford, the winger failed to establish himself as a first-team regular.
The 22-year-old spent most of that time on loan with Liga clubs Alaves and Granada, but never did enough to impress Erik ten Hag.
The Uruguay international leaves Man United after featuring 25 times for the Manchester club, with fans wondering what would have been for the player if the winger had developed better.
