According to the Mirror , coach Erik ten Hag really wants to bring another former student at Ajax, striker Brian Brobbey, to MU.
Sources say the Dutch strategist is confident of continuing his work at Old Trafford next season, despite having an unsuccessful season with MU and being under pressure to be fired.
New MU owner and billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his team will manage MU's sports activities in general and football in particular, as in the agreement when buying back 25% of shares from the Glazer family.
The British billionaire plans to make a major reform at MU, especially in recruitment to avoid spending a lot of money but bringing in unworthy contracts.
Antony, who cost 100 million Euros from Ajax and was demanded by coach Erik ten Hag to be signed by MU, is the clearest example. The Brazilian star has not even scored a goal this season and has been criticized a lot.
Coach Erik ten Hag is also considered to not have a keen eye for player shopping, when the contracts he brought in cost money but were not really convincing, with Mason Mount (55 million Euros), Andre Onana (55 million Euros), Amrabat on loan from Fiorentina... Or Rasmus Hojlund with a price of 85 million Euros, although full of enthusiasm and passion, still did not show that it was worth the "big money".
Therefore, when hearing that coach Erik ten Hag wanted to bring back another former student, Brian Brobbey, skepticism for the MU captain was inevitable.
He even wanted to bring this striker to Old Trafford from 2022, when Brobbey himself revealed: "Coach Erik ten Hag wanted to work with me again. But I thanked him and said, I want to return to Ajax."
MU clearly need improvements in attack, with the leading scorer for them currently being McTominay - a midfielder (5 goals). Meanwhile, Rashford and Garnacho both have 3 goals, Hojlund and Martial have only 1, and Antony has disappeared...
