Manchester United report: Sir Jim Ratcliffe in huge U-turn to grant surprising new contract

Manchester United owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has stepped in to ensure that a new contract is rewarded.

The Red Devils are in the midst of an overhaul, with the incoming INEOS chief looking to bring in his own staff over the coming weeks. A huge transfer window is expected, too, with Manchester United’s tired squad needing serious work in the summer. 

While there may be plenty of departures this summer, there may be surprises for who stays – including manager Erik ten Hag who is linked with an exit. 

According to the Star, Ratcliffe is set to keep Scott McTominay at the club, offering the Scotland international a new contract.
