Following Ratcliffe's instructions, Manchester United is pursuing a 17-year-old striker belonging to a Division 3 club

Liputan6.com, Jakarta- Manchester United is starting to carry out the direction of new investor Sir Jim Ratcliffe. MU is increasingly looking for talented talent to develop itself rather than buying star-level players at high prices.

As is known, Ratcliffe has full control over football matters at MU even though he only has 27.7 percent of the shares. The Englishman immediately improved the team management. MU will no longer buy expensive players.

The Red Devils have often wasted money by buying expensive players in the last few seasons. Unfortunately, expensive players who are bought are often unable to shine at Old Trafford. Just mention Harry Maguire, Angel Di Maria, Donny van de Beek, Jadon Sancho and Antony.

Rather than buying expensive star players, Ratcliffe wanted to produce his own. MU is starting to map out potential young players who can be recruited to be developed into great players in the future.

For the attacker position, MU is reported The Sun at the end of March 2024 want young Port Vale striker Baylee Dipepa, who is only 17 years old. Even though he is still a teenager, Dipepa has already played for the Port Vale senior team.

Dipepa has even scored goals for the Port Vale senior team. He has also currently been called up to the England U-17 national team. MU wants to immediately secure Dipepa before he is annexed by another big Premier League club.
