Man Utd went for large parts of last season without a fit, senior left-back but they are looking to strengthen that area of the squad.
Greater Manchester-born Sir Jim Ratcliffe resides in Monaco, a tax haven for the wealthy, but you won't find the British billionaire enjoying a night in one of their famous casinos.
Ratcliffe is a businessman, not a gambler, and he obviously gets his kicks from sporting pursuits, investing in cycling, sailing and making a first sub-two-hour marathon possible. You cannot eliminate risk in business, it's inevitable, but minimising it gives the best chance of a preferred outcome and that mantra has seen Ratcliffe establish obscene wealth.
He's only been available for 70 per cent of games in a season twice since his arrival and Ratcliffe made fans laugh when he wished Shaw good luck for the Euro 2024 final, saying in a video message: "I sincerely hope you are successful. But Luke, please don't pull your hamstring again." Malacia was signed to deputise for Shaw and briefly started over him in Ten Hag's first season, but he continues to recover from his knee injury and wasn't included in the squad for the USA tour this week, which suggests he won't be fit enough to feature at the start of the campaign.
