The news is coming in that Manchester United have a new shareholder in Ratcliffe, and are planning to make some changes this summer. However, the latest disclosure shows that the "Red Devils" summer reinforcement funds only 100 million pounds (about 978 million Hong Kong dollars), such a budget even want to bring in a high-quality striker seems to be stretched, so how to talk about reform?
According to the British media, the new management of Manchester United is in place with the entry of "Lord La" into the company, and is pushing for drastic reforms in a step-by-step manner. However, constrained by the Premier League's profit and sustainability rules, Manchester United's net spending cap is still locked at 100 million pounds. Even if "Lord La" intends to expand his investment, he must abide by the rules and budgetary constraints remain.
With limited funds, United have had to raise money by selling players and downsizing. This summer, Anthony Martial and Warani left the club without any transfer income, instead only reducing the wage bill. Kristian Alexandre, Casimiro, Chaton Sinzou, Anthony Mathias and Wendy Bick are on the list of players to be cleared, but selling these players at a high price seems to be out of reach.
In terms of staff streamlining, United are seeking lower wages for Vitolian Diluv, Yunbishaka, McTummini and Harry Magooni. If they refuse to cooperate, they will face being put up for sale.
Manchester United are expected to remain with Coach Tannhäuser for more than a year until his contract expires next season. Coach Tannhäuser will have to accept a 25% cut in his salary, which has been reduced from £9 million to £6.75 million (about HK$88 million to HK$66 million) per year. However, if the team's performance remains flat in the new season, the cooperation with Coach Tannhäuser may face a test.
