Jim Ratcliffe Approves Sales Of 11 Players At Manchester United

According to reports, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, Manchester United’s new partial owner, has given the team permission to let rid of 11 players.

Jim Ratcliffe oversees the football operations of the Red Devils, even though he does not hold the majority of the team’s ownership. As such, he has the most influence over the hiring and firing of coaches and players.

Rebuilding the team’s roster as quickly as possible by bringing in new players and cutting out some deadwood is one of his objectives.

According to ESPN, the British billionaire has given the go-ahead for a significant change to the team’s starting lineup during the upcoming summer transfer window.

Take note that their financial situation has deteriorated as a result of their inability to go to the UEFA Champions League knockout stage, and it will get worse if they are unable to advance this season. Thus, the clearance was necessary.

According to Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s approval, Harry Maguire, Scott McTominay, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Casemiro, and Raphael Varane are the players that are most likely to be traded this summer.

The others are Facundo Pellistri, Brandon Williams, Donny van de Beek, Jadon Sancho, Christian Eriksen, and Victor Lindelof.

Anthony Martial, a France international who is now out of favor, is anticipated to leave Old Trafford this summer as a free agent because his deal with the team expires in June 2024.
