Manchester United have reportedly met the masterminds behind Liverpool's successful recruitment record throughout the Jurgen Klopp era. Meanwhile, Klopp formed a squad at Liverpool capable of going toe-to-toe with Pep Guardiola's Manchester City, lifting the Champions League in 2019 and the Premier League a year later. But bargain buys - including Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Andrew Robertson - make up a chunk of the German boss' successful side. And United are reportedly looking to take a page out of their bitter rivals' book at the dawn of a new, sporting performance-focused age under Ratcliffe. According to the Mail, United have held talks with Ludonautics, the sports advisory and statistical analysis business helmed by Liverpool's former Director of Research, Dr Ian Graham.
