The Old Trafford team is expected to face many difficulties in the winter transfer market.
Not unexpected, Manchester United soon came to the decision to liquidate the contract of Cristiano Ronaldo, after the controversial interview between CR7 and Piers Morgan was published. As confirmed by coach Erik Ten Hag, the Red Devils are expected to do their best to complete the task of replacing Ronaldo in January.
However, Man Utd fans should not expect too much from the club's upcoming transfer window. Because according to the disclosure from The Mirror, instead of acquiring famous names, the Old Trafford team will probably implement a short-term solution to strengthen the attack, similar to the way they signed with Arsenal. Odion Ighalo in January 2020. The source added, there are 3 reasons forcing Man Utd to consider this solution.

The first reason comes from the transfer fee of potential targets, although Man Utd is a big team with relatively strong financial potential, they have never had the tendency to 'overstretch' during the winter transfer window. However, at the moment, the top goals that the Old Trafford team are targeting are expected to cost them a significant transfer fee.
Cody Gakpo has just experienced an impressive World Cup , and in the context that the contract between the two sides is still valid until 2026, PSV Eindhoven will certainly not let the Dutch striker leave easily. Similar is the case with Goncalo Ramos, when President Rui Costa has confirmed that Benfica will only accept the departure of the star in January if the termination clause is activated (supposedly around 120 million euros). .
Ten Hag is targeting expensive names.
Obviously, the remaining names like Joao Felix or Rafael Leao will also force Man Utd to 'break the safe', and above all, the partner clubs have more reason to pressure the Red Devils because they certainly are. did not want to part with his mainstay in the middle of the season. It is worth mentioning, the next reason that Man Utd is in trouble, also comes from financial problems, more specifically, the overall number they have spent in the summer transfer window.
According to data from Transfermarkt, Man Utd has never spent up to 240 million euros for a total of two transfer periods in a season, but only in the last summer market, that is the amount they have invested in goods. expensive rookie series. Obviously, to detonate another blockbuster in the winter transfer window will be a difficult task for the Red Devils, not to mention the possibility of them being 'touched' by the Financial Fair Play.
Ten Hag hardly has a blockbuster in the East market.
And finally, the sale of the Glazer House ownership of the club will also have many unpredictable consequences, making the situation at Old Trafford complicated. Therefore, Man Utd does not want to make any more important changes in terms of personnel at this time. In general, it is clear that there are not too many signs that the Red Devils will recruit an expensive striker in the winter transfer market.
