Erik ten Hag is expected to bounce back from his season-ending setbacks, but any advancement in the transfer market will require the support of Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS.

Michael Olise of Crystal Palace was one player they were connected to sign to start the summer in style, but all indications point to the winger joining Bayern Munich in a £50 million move.
Although that decision has not yet been made, there are still rumors that United and other rivals are making every effort to slip up and steal the Frenchman right under manager Vincent Kompany’s nose.
However, the reporter ultimately states that Olise’s move to Bayern is the one he desires most over others; he will sign his five-year contract, and with both clubs involved committed to finalising details, it is not in jeopardy at this stage.
Time is therefore running out for United and any other suitors, with the 22-year-old due in Germany in the coming week to undergo a medical ahead of the switch.
When rumours first began, the other English rivals said to hold interest in Olise were Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City.
The former were said to have offered a financially competitive offer to Bayern’s, though he rejected the Blues in favour of the Bundesliga.
Meanwhile, United still have a question to resolve on the right flank of Erik ten Hag’s attack.
Currently, Alejandro Garnacho resides in that area, though he prefers the left wing spot.
Antony is his backup, though his 16 goal contributions over two seasons mean the Brazilian still has his doubters.
Jadon Sancho and Mason Greenwood also remain linked to exits, so reinforcement could potentially be a requirement
