Not just a striker: Sir Jim Ratcliffe identifies three areas Man United need to improve (reliability: 4 stars)

Sir Jim Ratcliffe has assumed control of football operations at Old Trafford after completing his 25 per cent stake purchase.

The British billionaire main goal will be to bring a world-class striker to Manchester United this summer — but the list doesn't stop there.

According to the Evening Standard, a centre-back, a right-back and a midfielder capable of playing in a no.8 role are also being targeted for the future.
