Peter Schmeichel questions how Man Utd missed out on ‘fantastic’ Premier League defender
Former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel has questioned how the Reds managed to miss out on a Premier League defender, who has been ‘a revelation’.…
Peter Schmeichel is widely regarded as one of Manchester United’s greatest goalkeepers. Signed from Brøndby in August 1991 for £505,000—a fee Sir Alex Ferguson later called the “bargain of the century”—he became a cornerstone of United’s dominance in the 1990s. 
During his eight seasons at Old Trafford, Schmeichel made 398 appearances and helped the club secure 15 major trophies, including five Premier League titles, three FA Cups, and the UEFA Champions League in 1999, completing a historic treble.
