Sir Jim Ratcliffe was at Old Trafford to watch Manchester United’s draw with Tottenham on Sunday and beforehand he had a brief chat with journalists in the media room.

The new co-owner is set to take over sporting matters at the club once his £1.3billion investment is ratified by the Premier League.

He will be flanked by Sir Dave Brailsford and former Juventus chief Jean-Claude Blanc. A number of topics will be in his in tray, with transfers no doubt high on the agenda.

But the recruitment room is not the only area of the club that needs improving. Old Trafford and Carrington are both in need of upgrading with United now behind the curve in terms of infrastructure.
