  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  A recent meeting in Manchester saw Ratcliffe, Brailsford, and Blanc discussing the club's future direction as far as player sales and incoming are concerned. Brailsford has allegedly held one-on-one meetings with players and staff to outline the club's strategic vision for the next season. Reports suggest that they are open to significant squad changes, with only three players – Kobbie Mainoo, Alejandro Garnacho, and Rasmus Hojlund – rumoured to be guaranteed their places in the team.

  Ratcliffe's objective is clear: to revitalise United and restore the club to former glory following a challenging period. With the new regime adopting an open-minded stance toward player sales many players might be released in a 'fire sale' as each and every bid will be considered carefully before striking the hammer.
