Manchester United had parted ways with their star player Cristiano Ronaldo for failing to break one of their laid down rules, which cause a lot of damage to the club's integrity as well as the unity that Erik Ten Hag worked so hard to build since joining the club.

His exit sent United into the market I'm search of new quality additions that could boost their current setup with the club majorly linked to Joao Felix and Cody Gakpo at the beginning of the window but they opted for an entirely different in Wout Weghorst.

How did the board damage Ten Hag's plan?

According to the latest reports, Manchester United discussed the signing of Cody Gakpo for a long time, and one of the club owners, Joel Glazers ruled out no funds available for such a transfer before Christmas. Ten Hag was subsequently forced to go for a loan deal with Weghorst as United couldn't fund the January transfer.
