Ratcliffe wants to imitate Perez's Real Madrid model at Man United

Sir Jim Ratcliffe is reportedly looking to follow Florentino Perez's Real Madrid model by signing two young Brazilian players for Manchester United.

Perez has invested massively in Brazilian talents including Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo and Endrick.

The first two have been hugely successful at the Bernabeu while Endrick is touted to continue the trend.  

Wolves' Joao Gomes (23) and Fluminense's Andre (22) are said to have been pencilled by Ineos to begin their own era at Old Trafford.

It is believed that Fluminese value Andre at around €25m (£21.3million), which is very reasonable, especially when you consider United’s need to replace Casemiro and Sofyan Amrabat.

Meanwhile, Gomes, also a midfielder, is valued at around €50m.
