It’s now official that Manchester United owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has dismissed Erik Ten Hag during the international break, and his replacement has been announced.

The Carrington training complex is receiving £50 million in upgrades as the club seeks to enhance its facilities to match those of other top teams.

 

However, the ongoing renovations have made training sessions more visible. In response, Ten Hag has requested a large white wall to shield practices from onlookers and offer some protection from the elements.

 

Despite uncertainties about Ten Hag’s future, INEOS executives and other senior officials at Manchester United have approved the wall.

 

As reported by the *Daily Mail*, this adjustment aims to restore the privacy the team had at their former training ground.

 

Nonetheless, the expense of the wall has raised concerns among some staff, particularly given the club’s recent cost-cutting measures that resulted in 250 job losses during a major restructuring.

 

The new co-owners have promised to reinvest savings into first-team operations, but some employees question the necessity of the wall.

 

The *Mirror* noted that Ratcliffe even canceled the team’s usual FA Cup final perks last season.

 

This isn’t the first time unusual changes have occurred at Carrington; former manager Louis van Gaal famously had windbreakers installed, stating that “wind is not always a friend of the players.”

 

These upgrades demonstrate the club’s commitment to enhancing its facilities for the team and coaching staff.

 

Despite a difficult start to the season and an unexpectedly low league position, Ten Hag remains confident in the support from Manchester United’s leadership.
