The Patrick Dorgu soap opera is heading toward the ending that many had expected by now. After today’s breakthrough, Pantaleo Corvino is in contact with Manchester United’s technical area to finalize the final details of a transfer much desired by the English club. After two rejected proposals (the last one exceeding 30 million), Dorgu will land in the Premier League, for 30 million base plus 7.5 million in bonuses. A proposal very close to the initial request of 40 million behind which Lecce has always entrenched itself.
Dorgu will tie up with Manchester United for five years and will reach the UK with his family, who have been in Lecce for days. All that is missing is the chrism of officiality. The via Costadura club is about to ratify the most substantial capital gain in its history, routing the proceeds budgeted after the sale of Hjulmand to Sporting CP Lisbon.
