Some reports even suggest that he only has three games to save his job, playing Chelsea tonight.<\/p>\n<p>The arrival of Ir Jim Ratcliffe&#8217;s, too, did little to end these rumors, but the manager later revealed that the meeting was merely routine, whilst he joked that he had been offered a new contract.<\/p>\n<section class=\"emaki-custom-block emaki-custom-pullquote\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<div class=\"emaki-custom pullquote\" id=\"custom_block_4\">\n<div class=\"custom_block-content pullquote\">\n<p>&#8220;New contract, he was offering me a new contract!

But if the current results continue, it will not last forever. The owners invest around \u00a3200 million in the summer to strengthen United&#8217;s team, hoping that will be reflected on the pitch sooner than later.<\/p>\n<p>Ineos is unlikely to end their investment. 2026 gives them a fresh opportunity to complete the Amorim side, and the report suggests that they can already try to sign something like Realdrid&#8217;s Eduardo Camavivanga.<\/p>\n<p>But whether the Red Devils willingly take off to the French is another question. Instead, they may turn to bargain deals to sign a Barcelona alternative.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"man-utd-now-eyeing-de-jong-swoop\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Man_Utd_focused_on_De_-in\"><\/span>\n                        <strong>Man Utd focused on De -in<\/strong><br \/>\n               <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>According to a Spanish report, Man United is currently paying attention to the 2026 move to sign Frenkie de John.
