Manchester United supporters have given a big thumbs up to Sir Jim Ratcliffe's first major appointment after Omar Berrada was announced as the club's new CEO.

United caught many off guard on Saturday night when news broke of the addition of Berrada to the boardroom. The 46-year-old held several different positions at the Etihad Stadium, most notably his recent role as head of football operations since 2020.

During his time at City, Berrada was one of the key influential figures behind the scenes as Pep Guardiola shaped a squad fit to create history last season as they won the Treble.

However, Ratcliffe has managed to flex his pulling power to bring the well-respected boardroom figure to the red half of Manchester.
