Manchester United have handed manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer an initial £250m to overhaul their squad.

Ed Woodward will give the Old Trafford boss a monster kitty in a desperate bid to get the club back on track, says The Times.

Solskjaer is likely to completely revamp his squad and may need to bring in around ten new faces to be competitive again.

Paul Pogba and David De Gea look set to be the most-high-profile departures from Old Trafford in the coming window, with Real Madrid interested in both.

And with the likes of Ander Herrera, Antonio Valencia and Juan Mata leaving this summer with their contracts expiring, Solskjaer will be forced to dive into the transfer market.

However, United are set to spend big in a bid to bring back the glory days after six years of lacking their famous competitive edge.
