The former Red Devils defender is delighted to have seen Ole Gunnar Solskjaer bring in a player who cares more about the club than lining his pockets
Odion Ighalo is the perfect “throwback” for Manchester United, says Rio Ferdinand, with the Nigerian striker driven by passion for the club he supported as a boy rather than monetary gain.
The Red Devils have struggled to find those qualities at times in the transfer market.
That has led Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to favour a different approach to recruitment, with greater emphasis being placed on players with promise and home-grown talent.
