Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s “Very Clear” Manchester United Summer Transfer Strategy With Plans Already In Place
Written by Albert Echatah
Reports state that Sir Jim Ratcliffe intends to lessen Erik ten Hag’s influence over Manchester United’s transfer policy.
More Details
With his relocation to Old Trafford eighteen months ago, the Dutchman has been given significant influence over United’s transfer negotiations. However, Ratcliffe’s impending move to Old Trafford will mark a restructuring of United’s hiring practices.
The story claims that Ratcliffe is calling for a “deep audit” of United’s organizational structure, with the major modification being to “put transfers in the hands of experts.”
According to the article, Paul Mitchell, the former head of recruiting at Tottenham, is a front-runner to take over as United’s new sporting director. Furthermore, Ten Hag’s influence over who joins during the transfer window will be somewhat diminished with the appointment of a new sporting director.
After Qatari investor Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al Thani withdrew from the bidding earlier this month, Ratcliffe is expected to spend £1.3 billion for 25% of United.
Ratcliffe’s offer is anticipated to mark the beginning of a phased buyout in which the Glazer family will finally cede control of United.

Meanwhile…
Erik ten Hag is anxious to prevent Jadon Sancho from making a “empty gesture,” therefore Manchester United is apparently willing to accept a “significant loss” on him.
Sancho has a disruptive impact on the rest of United’s team, according to manager Ten Hag, who is determined to get rid of the winger.
This season, Sancho and Ten Hag had a nasty falling out, with the Dutchman publicly criticizing his player in the media for his lack of effort in practice. After spending £73 million on him in 2021, United is now willing to suffer a “significant loss” on the player in the January transfer window.
