Liverpool star reveals Nemanja Vidic regret
Jamie Carragher rues the fact Liverpool Football Club missed out on Nemanja Vidic.
The Reds met the release clause of the then-Spartak Moscow defender, but Manchester United came along and topped their offer to take the Serbian to Old Trafford.
Since then Vidic has established himself as one the great Premier League defenders of recent years, and Carragher rues missing out on the 27-year-old.
“United have got that edge on us financially,” he told The Times.
“Vidic is a classic case. He had a buyout clause of four or five million. United came along and paid seven or eight. But we can’t make excuses given the money we’ve spent.”
