Manchester United to Sign Dave Brailsford as Director of Football

Erik ten Hag's Revolution Continues at Old Trafford

Manchester United are set to appoint former Team Sky boss Dave Brailsford as their new Director of Football, as Erik ten Hag continues to reshape the club in his image.

Brailsford, who led Team Sky to eight Tour de France victories, will oversee all aspects of football operations at Old Trafford, including player recruitment, academy development, and coaching.

The appointment is a major coup for United, who have been searching for a Director of Football since Ed Woodward left the club in February.

Brailsford is one of the most respected figures in world sport, and his appointment is a sign of United's ambition under ten Hag.

The Dutchman has already made a number of changes to the United squad this summer, bringing in Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen, and Lisandro Martinez.

Brailsford's arrival will give ten Hag even more control over the club's football operations, and it is hoped that he can help United challenge for major trophies again.

Brailsford is known for his data-driven approach to sport, and he is expected to implement a similar system at United.

This could involve using data to identify potential transfer targets, assess player performance, and develop training programs.

Brailsford's appointment is a clear indication that ten Hag is serious about turning United back into a major force in English football.

The Dutchman has already shown that he is not afraid to make bold decisions, and Brailsford's arrival is another sign of his ambition.

United fans will be hoping that Brailsford can help the club rediscover its former glories.
