Manchester United are remaining flexible on this summer’s transfer budget as Erik ten Hag prepares to begin his Old Trafford overhaul.
The Ajax boss will take the reins at the Red Devils at the end of this season, replacing Ralf Rangnick with the 13-time Premier League winners at their lowest ebb in a generation. Saturday’s humiliating 4-0 defeat at the hands of Brighton not only officially extinguished their slim hopes of a top-four finish, but ensured that United will now finish with their lowest ever points tally.
Ten Hag will inherit an ageing, underperforming squad with a whole host of players looking destined to leave. The Dutchman is set to hold talks with every member of the playing staff, before he begins to decide how and where he can improve their fortunes.
