The Red Devils have been crowded with strikers by the ending of the last and one of few underachieving seasons. Then came the new gaffer with individual plans for most of senior team members and hope into bringing them back to where they were just a season ago.
Enourmous amounts of money was spent on incomers - Angel Di Maria, Falcao, Luke Shaw - and others who were considered to be necessary for getting back to the title race. Therefore, Louis van Gaal had to sell and loan out some of former regular starters - most of which were wingers and strikers.
Angelo Henriquez, the Chilean wonderkid, wasn't lucky enough to stick with the squad, although he wasn't sold either. He was instead, loaned out to Croatian champions Dinamo Zagreb who are most known for their controversial owner, Zdravko Mamic.
This is the striker's third loan since signing for United in August 2012. Firstly, he featured a short-term loan at Wigan Athletic, being able to score only once in four appearances. He moved to Spain next, playing the 2013-14 season at Zaragoza. The 20-year-old managed to improve his statistics with six goals in 25 matches.
Henriquez started his Croatian adventures in an extraordinary way. He scored the first goal for the club two weeks upon the arrival in the biggest derby of the 1. HNL. Also known as the Eternal derby, the match in which Dinamo are facing Hajduk Split is oftenly the most interesting collison between any of the league clubs. It was on August 30 when Henriquez ensured a win for the Blues with a late goal, as it ended 3-2 for the guest side.
He exploded in a match versus Lokomotiva, scoring all three goals in a 3-0 win. The youngster also shook the net in a Europa League group match against the Romanian side Astra Giurgiu. There is a buying option on his contract with the Croats and a stay at the capital of Croatia is now indeed, very possible.
