EKO HOT BLOG reports that Manchester United have once again hired Sir Alex Ferguson as the legendary manager is now officially back working at the club.

According to Daily Mail, Ferguson will be joined in the think-tank by iconic captain Bryan Robson, former CEO David Gill and the current football director John Murtough.

The first meeting of the five-man group is thought to have taken place on Tuesday at the club’s training ground and there will not be regular get-togethers going forward.

The roles for Ferguson and Gill are believed to be more influential than the non-executive director positions they have held on the board since 2013, which were largely symbolic.

This new think-tank is not thought to have direct impact or influence on manager Erik ten Hag, with the Mail’s report stating that it will be dealing with issues like the redevelopment of Old Trafford and Carrington, and also the club’s relationship with the fanbase.

However, footballing matters will inevitably be touched upon and Ferguson is still influential in that side of things, talking to Cristiano Ronaldo this week as the forward’s future still hangs in the balance.
