Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has thrown Jose Mourinho under the bus when discussing his side’s transfer business. The Dutchman has called for increased backing this summer, with a major overhaul planned. The Red Devils are planning to splash the cash at the end of the season, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe identifying targets at both ends of the pitch. Jarrad Branthwaite, Michael Olise and Ivan Toney are among a host of names tipped to head to the Old Trafford outfit, with other acquisitions also in the pipeline. The ex-Ajax manager has been well-backed previously but saw his request of signing a new striker fall on deaf ears in the January transfer window, with Rasmus Hojlund being his only available forward for the vast majority of the campaign.
