Sir Jim Ratcliffe 'has bold plan to land FOUR big signings' after sealing £1.3bn takeover... with Manchester United 'eyeing a Harry Kane-level striker' to bolster their ailing attack

Sir Jim Ratcliffe is reportedly targeting four major signings to help try and transform Manchester United's team this summer.

Ratcliffe is waiting on Premier League ratification of his £1.3billion minority takeover for 25 per cent of the club.

The British billionaire and his Ineos team will take charge of football operations at Old Trafford as part of the deal and all eyes are reportedly on summer recruitment.

The Evening Standard detail how Ratcliffe, who was in the directors' box on Sunday to see the draw against Tottenham, and his aides have identified a new No 9 as a 'prioirty', as well as a No8, a centre back and a right back.
