Sir Jim Ratcliffe is expected to ring the changes in Manchester United’s sporting department when he completes a \u00a31.4billion deal to buy 25 per cent of the club. And INEOS’ track record at Nice suggests that Erik ten Hag can expect to be heavily backed if the Glazer family allow Sir Jim to fund player recruitment at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n
In April 2022, United’s interim manager Ralf Rangnick famously claimed that the club needed to sign up to 10 new players just to start a rebuild under Ten Hag near the end of a disastrous season.<\/p>\n
“There will be a rebuild for sure, but that does not help us when we still have five games to play,” said Rangnick, following a 4-0 thrashing against Liverpool at Anfield.<\/p>\n
“If you analyse the situation, it is not difficult to analyse. For me, it is clear there will be six, seven, eight, maybe 10 new players. Before you sign those players, you need to be aware of how you want to play.”<\/p>\n
Sir Jim and INEOS will likely inherit total sporting control as part of their deal for a minority stake by next summer at the latest.<\/p>\n
