But Hradeckuy says he rejected the proposal at the time, insisting he has no regrets.

He recalled:  “I didn't like the way British clubs worked with their academy teams. And I didn’t really like that atmosphere there.

“I don’t mean it in any bad way, but I just didn’t see myself playing at United. So I ended up rejecting the offer."
