Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise has emerged as Manchester United’s primary target for next summer, with a January move ruled out, according to the Evening Standard.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his team are set to carry out the overhaul of the sporting structure once their 25 per cent takeover of Manchester United is ratified in the coming weeks.
The new management are unlikely to do much in January given Manchester United’s financial fair play constraints but they are looking at the summer more intently.
A new structure is expected to be in place before the summer and it has been claimed that they already have a primary target in mind.
Manchester United want to sign Olise as one of the first arrivals of the Ratcliffe era at Old Trafford.
The winger has been identified as the player who could bring some spark to Manchester United’s attack.
Olise signed a new deal last year but it contains a release clause that will come into effect in the summer
Ratcliffe and his team want to focus on bringing in young players to boost the Red Devils squad.
