Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was aghast to discover Manchester United refused to scout players from European rivals after taking the reins from Jose Mourinho, according to reports.
The Norwegian was appointed caretaker manager following Mourinho's sacking in December 2018 and took over on a permanent basis three months later.
Solskjaer's tenure was partly characterised by mixed success in the transfer market, with Bruno Fernandes proving to be a great signing while the likes of Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Donny Van de Beek have failed to live up to their huge price tags.
