The rough start Manchester United have faced under Ruben Amorim, has underlined the scale of the challenge he faces in turning the club’s fortunes around.
The new INEOS-led sporting structure will be responsible for equipping Amorim with the resources needed to improve United’s underperforming squad.
Only a select few players from the first team are considered safe.
Major departures are expected at United under the new regime.
Alejandro Garnacho had grown to be seen as a huge part of United’s long-term plans.
However, there seems a chance that the Argentinian is going to leave the club, with Chelsea and Napoli seriously interested.

Napoli’s interest has become so serious, to the stage of Antonio Conte himself ringing the winger.
As Fabrizio Romano has reported on X, the former Chelsea manager held a phone call with Garnacho.
In order to discuss possibilities of joining.
The doors ‘remain open’, which is a surprise considering United were long believed to keep Garnacho ‘untouchable’.
Alejandro Garnacho situation remains open, doors are not closed ahead of final two weeks.
Napoli keep pushing with Antonio Conte who had direct call with Garnacho on Friday.

Concerns have been raised as to Garnacho’s fit in Amorim’s 3-4-3 system.
The 20-year-old thrives with space to attack down the flank.
A theme not so common in Amorim’s shape.
The two 10’s in Amorim’s system tend to start narrow in central positions.
Thus, already coming at a disadvantage to Garnacho’s game.
Conte has varied between formations at Napoli, sporadically using a 4-3-3.

A system that would very much help Garnacho, considering his pace and ability out wide.
Should Garnacho go on to depart, the opportunity will very much open up for an elite attacker to join.
United fans will be putting pressure on INEOS to do smart business.
Signing a top left-winger to replace Garnacho and Rashford would be a good start.
Interesting times ahead for United fans.
