Manchester United part-owner Joel Glazer wants a director of football installed by the end of the season.
The Daily Mail says United are revisiting long-standing plans to appoint a director of football on the orders of Glazer.
United have run numerous recruitment processes to bring in a transfer guru over the last few years and held several interviews without identifying the right candidate to work with executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward and the club’s main negotiator Matt Judge.
Glazer, is demanding an overhaul of recruitment, with United having little recent silverware to show for a net transfer spend of £1billion over the last decade, and wants a new structure in place by the end of the season.
