Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox have been appointed chief executive and technical director, respectively. Berrada officially starts on July 13, and the latter has already got to work.

David Moyes, Louis van Gaal, Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer have all failed to restore former glories across a mediocre decade since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement.

But INEOS are said to believe that is because the chaotic environment helmed by the Glazer family made it impossible for even successful coaches like Mourinho to succeed.

Ratcliffe has emphasized replacing key figures like Richard Arnold and John Murtough with elite football people who can work in unison above a head coach to guide United in the right direction.

The report adds that there are also reservations about the quality of the candidates available to replace Ten Hag if he is dismissed.

Thomas Tuchel could be available unless Bayern Munich perform a U-turn and extend his contract beyond the summer. Graham Potter and England manager Gareth Southgate have also been strongly linked.

Recent reports have linked Brentford's Thomas Frank with the position. Others have claimed Kieran McKenna has already had contact with United over a return to the club.

McKenna was formerly U18 manager and assistant to Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer before guiding Ipswich Town from League One to the Premier League in two seasons.
