The winds of change are blowing in Greater Manchester, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his INEOS cohort essaying to build Manchester United back up to its past position as a footballing superpower.
Ratcliffe only purchased his 27.7% stake in the Old Trafford side back in February, but already there have been promising signs of growth, with a concerted approach to rebuilding the infrastructure and an almighty effort against neighbours Manchester City in the FA Cup final, winning 2-1.
Still, there’s an awful lot to do, but after being knocked off-kilter by incessant injury troubles last term, Erik ten Hag and the Red Devils transfer team appear to be emphasising the backline, arguably the crux of the landslide in form and performance levels.
As per reports from Spain Man United are willing to pay the asking price of Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo, with Manchester City and Newcastle United also keen.
Araujo has been a standout figure in Xavi’s Barca side over the past few years but could be on the move, entering the penultimate year of his contract.
The Uruguay international has been coy about his future, but La Blaugrana are believed to have marked their titan with a €90m (£76m) price tag.
