Sir Jim Ratcliffe says he would rather unearth the next Kylian Mbappe for Manchester United than spend a fortune on the France forward.
Ratcliffe, whose INEOS company has taken control of football operations at Old Trafford, wants to move away from the approach of trying to buy success, as has been the case under the Glazers.

At this point any player, young player who is showing any kind of potential should stay as far away as possible from Manchester United. Because if they actually join Manchester United it is most possibly going to be the start of the end. Any player who has recently joined Manchester United with a lot of hope has not been able to deliver at all. Better think about changing the coach instead of trying to bring in more new players. I am actually convinced that Ten Hag has an account in Swiss bank where he keeps a percentage of the money that he spends for bringing in new players

Absolutely 100% true!
United were a graveyard of talent and when undertaker Ten Hag arrived it only got worse. Only Casemiro or a similar player who has already won everything he could (5 Champions Leagues like Casemiro) and is now looking only for a fat contract can go to United in a clear mind.
Everyone has already seen that United is a swamp, so it will be extremely difficult to lure any promising player there (not to mention top players).
