Manchester United have started arguably the most pivotal transfer window in their modern history as INEOS have taken control of football operations at Old Trafford.

Article continues under the video

With a new structure above manager Erik ten Hag, the Red Devils have already seen significant changes this summer.

The Dutchman survived a two-week end-of-season review from the higher-ups at the club so he will be in charge of the team on the opening game of the 2024/25 Premier League campaign.

He has even signed a contract extension at Old Trafford after guiding the club to FA Cup glory in May.

Off the pitch, there is now great hope with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS looking to oversee drastic improvement on the pitch following their arrival earlier this year.

No more Ed Woodward, and hopefully a structure which can set up the club for future success. Expect many players to leave and several to come in during the summer transfer window.

Our live Man Utd transfer blog brings you all the latest news surrounding the Red Devils, including exclusives from our own reporters as well as checking out what the other big names are saying (including the likes of Fabrizio Romano and David Ornstein).

There are expected to be many moves this summer with players coming and going, and the Old Trafford rumour mill is already in full swing.

Ten Hag could be sacked with bad result against Southampton, claims Saha

Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha has admitted he believes Erik ten Hag's position as manager could become 'untenable' with a poor result this weekend against Southampton.

After being asked if Ten Hag could be sacked if the Saints win against United, Saha told Betfred: “I think so. Against Liverpool, the issue was the performance rather than just the result, so Erik’s under pressure because the team isn’t playing well.

“There were no signs during the game that things were going to be fixed. On Saturday, if Southampton are able to dominate against Manchester United in the same way that Liverpool dominated last week, then the situation would be untenable for Erik ten Hag.”

Ronaldo slams Ten Hag's loser mentality

Former Man Utd superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has thrown shade at current boss Erik ten Hag by claiming he has a losing mentality. 

The 39-year-old, who left the club with ten Hag at the helm, told Rio Ferdinand that United aren't equipped for silverware with the Dutch gaffer in charge.

“Man Utd, they need to rebuild everything, in my opinion. The coach, they say they cannot compete to win the League and Champions League,” said Ronaldo.

“As a Manchester United coach, you cannot say that you're not going to fight to win the league or Champions League. You have to be, to mentally say, listen, maybe we don't have that potential, but I cannot say that. We're going to try. You have to try."

The Turkish transfer window remains open and there were previous reports that Fenerbahce could take Antony on loan before the deadline this Friday, but that won't be happening. (MEN)
