Manchester United are making strides in reshaping their football department, with Southampton’s Jason Wilcox high on the list of people they want to bring in.

After the announcement that Manchester City’s chief football operations manager, Omar Berrada, will move to United this summer, the new minority owner, Ineos, has begun work on hiring a management team to try to transform the club after a period of decline. Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the Ineos CEO, is keen to support Berrada by allowing him to make a number of appointments to key positions in the football department.
