Manchester United stand on the precipice of another major crossroads in their recent history, with the process to hire a new permanent manager well underway.
Football director John Murtough, who will lead the search for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's long-term successor - has admitted that the ultimate target for the new man will not be top-four finishes, instead of aiming at bringing United back their position at the top of the European game.
"We know that consistency is key as we strive for a top-four finish this season," Murtough said. "I want to reiterate however that this is not the ultimate objective for Manchester United, and everyone at the club is focused on challenging for the top trophies.
