Gary Neville believes Erik ten Hag is not interested in signing a marquee player - which could cause friction with the proposed new owner Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani.
Sheikh Jassim is embroiled in a long-running takeover battle with INEOS chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe after the Glazers put United up for sale in November. It's believed the Glazers are negotiating to grant exclusivity to the Qatari banker's consortium.
If his bid is successful, Sheikh Jassim is expected to give Ten Hag a transfer warchest. One player who could move to United is Kylian Mbappe, who has told Paris Saint-Germain he will not renew his contract. He will be put up for sale if he doesn't change his mind.
