Ratcliffe wants to change manager role at Man Utd

Manchester United’s new minority shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe reportedly wants to change the role of the manager at Old Trafford as part of the restructuring.

Ratcliffe has taken over the football department at the club, and the owner and founder of INEOS has already made big changes behind the scenes.

According to The Telegraph, the 71-year-old wants to change the manager position at the club to a head coach, with certain responsibilities being taken away from the individual in the dug-out.

The report claims that Ratcliffe wants a head coach to be focused solely on football, with the CEO and sporting director dealing with transfers and other off-the-field matters.

Omar Berrada has been brought in from Manchester City as the new CEO, while Dan Ashworth is set to soon be confirmed as the club’s new sporting director.

Erik ten Hag has had a transfer veto at the club since his arrival as Man United manager in the summer of 2022.

There has been a host of speculation surrounding the managerial position at Old Trafford, with England head coach Gareth Southgate being strongly linked with the role.

However, Ten Hag is set to remain as Man United boss until at least the end of the campaign, and it has been suggested that he could keep his job with the 20-time English champions leading into next season.
