Manchester United are planning to appoint a deputy football director to work closely with transfer chief John Murtough.
Those within United's boardroom are thought to be keen on revolutionising the way the club is run in a move that sees Murtough currently brunt an overwhelming amount of responsibility, following his recent promotion from head of football development to football director.
As a result, United are planning to reduce his workload by providing him with an assistant to help oversee things and give the likes of technical director Darren Fletcher someone else to answer to, as per The Athletic.
