Erik explains Sabitzer signing
The manager spoke to the media following United’s 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford, ensuring a 5-0 aggregate victory and safe passage to the Carabao Cup final at Wembley.
Journalists quizzed the Dutchman about our newest recruit, who arrived on loan from Bayern Munich on transfer deadline day, and was in attendance for our win over Forest.
“We are really happy with that transfer because we need it after Donny van de Beek dropped out, now Christian Eriksen for a longer time and also, I think for a short time, Scott McTominay is also not available,” said Erik.
“So that gives us a shortage of midfield players. But then to bring a quality player in on deadline day that is difficult, and we got this opportunity.”
