1. Bébé: £7.4 million from Vitória de Guimarães
We are finally down to number 1 of the Top 10 Sir Alex Ferguson’s Worst Signings For Manchester United which is Portuguese footballer Bebe.
In 2010 Bebe joined United for a fee around £7 million from Vitória de Guimarães.
When Bebe was asked about his relationship with Ferguson he answered: “He told me to cut my hair, it will look better. So I cut it the same day. In the next training session, he didn’t recognise me. I went past him many times and he didn’t know me.”
The forward spent four years at Old Trafford, but only managed to make two appearances for the club in the Premier League.
After three loan-spells away from the club, Bebe finally completed a permanent move to Benfica in 2014. However, he was then sent out on loan by the Portuguese giants to Cordoba.
So there you have it, the list of poor Sir Alex Ferguson signings and if this manager can get things wrong, everyone can.
