According To Reports Manchester Are Keen Bring The Other Half Of Bellingham To Old Trafford And The Club Has Made Contacts To Bring Jobe To Old Trafford. Manchester United Set To Make First Bid For Sensational Midfielder As Part Of INEOS Overhaul.
Manchester United experienced their 14th Premier League loss of the season on Sunday, continuing a series of underwhelming performances under Erik ten Hag, particularly struggling to challenge Arsenal at Old Trafford.
Notable positives for United were the midfield efforts of Kobbie Mainoo and the promising play of young wingers Alejandro Garnacho and Amad Diallo.
As INEOS gears up for the summer transfer window with plans to overhaul the team, the strategy should focus on acquiring young, ambitious players rather than established but aging stars like Casemiro, who again disappointed against Arsenal.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe supports this vision and plans to enhance it by targeting top prospects from the Championship.
According to The Northern Echo, Manchester United is preparing a formal bid for Sunderland’s young talent, Chris Rigg.
Rigg, a promising English player on a scholarship with Sunderland, will be eligible to sign his first professional contract when he turns 17 this summer.
United aims to make a strong pitch to Rigg, aligning with the club’s renewed focus on strengthening their academy.
In this effort, INEOS has already made significant progress by appointing Jason Wilcox as the new technical director. Wilcox was instrumental in transforming Manchester City’s youth development programs during his time as head of the academy.
