Sir Dave Brailsford 'to reduce Man United role amid major Sir Jim Ratcliffe reshuffle'

Sir Dave Brailsford will reportedly see his role at Manchester United reduced as part of a major reshuffle overseen by co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

The former British Cycling supremo was brought into Man United's hierarchy by Ratcliffe and Ineos following their investment in the club.

Brailsford had been heavily involved in United’s strategy as they seek a first top flight title since 2013.

Earlier this year, Brailsford had unveiled the 'Mission 21' plan, which has been focused on delivering United's 21st English league title.

According to the Times, Brailsford's role is now set to be reduced as part of a shake-up by Ratcliffe.

The report claims Brailsford will now revert to his previous position as director of sport for Ineos.
