Erik ten Hag is reportedly ready to splash the cash which Manchester United will soon save on Cristiano Ronaldo 's wages during the January transfer window.
The Red Devils finally reached an agreement with legendary No.7 Ronaldo on Tuesday and terminated his £480,000-a-week contract. United's long-awaited decision means that they'll save a cool £16million between now and the end of the season, boosting manager Ten Hag's transfer kitty for the winter window.
Despite scoring just three goals for the Red Devils this season before his acrimonious exit, Ronaldo was often the Red Devils' starting striker, with Ten Hag limited in his options up front due to the frequent absence of Anthony Martial. Now, though, United are searching for a long-term heir in the strike role and have turned to someone who they recently missed out on.
