The INEOS chief has taken full control of football operations and has made several changes. Omar Berrada has been appointed CEO, and there are plans to appoint Dan Ashworth as United’s new sporting director and Jason Wilcox as the technical director. According to reports, players have noticed a change in the behavior of Ten Hag, indicating that Ratcliffe may be considering a change this summer.
This comes after Ratcliffe declined to publicly express confidence in Ten Hag’s future back in February. He emphasized the need to create the right environment, structure, and personnel to support the coach, rather than solely focusing on his performance. Ratcliffe stated that they would evaluate the facts and make a fair judgment, prioritizing creating an optimal working environment.
The focus is on the ongoing project, and Ratcliffe expressed his dedication and enjoyment in being a part of it. He acknowledged the challenges and emphasized the belief in being on the right path to achieve the desired results.
