Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has held a crisis meeting with vice-chairman Ed Woodward.
The Daily Mail says Woodward held crisis talks with Solskjaer and his assistant Mike Phelan at the club's training ground on Thursday.
Woodward called the lunchtime meeting at Carrington to discuss United's deepening problems after a seventh defeat in nine games in the derby against Manchester City left Solskjaer's side in danger of missing out on the top four.
United are alarmed that their line-up to face City — and particularly Solskjaer's decision to recall Matteo Darmian in a back-five — was leaked well before kick-off at Old Trafford, even though it was meant to be a secret.
