Raphael Varane, the ex-Manchester United defender, has criticized the club's leadership and decision-making structure, describing it as unclear and fragmented. Following Sir Jim Ratcliffe's minority investment, Varane expressed surprise at the decision to extend Erik Ten Hag's contract despite the team's poor performance in the 2023/24 season. He highlighted the absence of a defined methodology in club operations compared to Real Madrid, where processes are clear. He pointed out that the influx of executives resulted in confusion over who was responsible for decisions, embodying a lack of cohesion in the club's management.

"There were too many people involved in the decision-making process, so we didn't know who was really making the decisions..."
