    “This process will continue as we implement our plan and our footballing vision under Ole and his coaching staff,” Woodward said.

    Following the major signing of Bruno Fernandes in January, Woodward added that the midfielder is “an important step in that direction, demonstrating our commitment to adding experienced, world-class recruits to the exciting crop of academy graduates that are at the heart of this developing team.”

    “We will take the same planned, disciplined, approach this coming summer,” he said.

    Woodward celebrated investment in the club’s academy structure, the launch of the women’s team and the announcement that Old Trafford will host the opening game of the 2021 Women’s European Championship.

    Woodward added: “While we still have much to do, we are progressing with confidence in the right direction.”
