No Communication from Sir Jim Ratcliffe

Darren Fletcher, the interim manager for Manchester United, has revealed that he has not communicated with co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe since taking over the role following the removal of Ruben Amorim on Monday.

Focused on Current Responsibilities

Stepping up from his previous position with the U18 team, Fletcher emphasized his commitment to the team’s immediate tasks. In a conversation with The Sun, he stated, “I have not, no. I speak to Omar (Berrada, chief executive) and Jason (Wilcox, sporting director).”

Assertive on Leadership

Fletcher mentioned, “For me, I have been focusing on the job in hand. No thoughts or conversations on my future.” He affirmed that he has been entrusted with complete responsibility for the upcoming games, adding, “I’ve had responsibility for my own decisions, to lead the team and prepare the team, that is what I have been doing.”

Looking Ahead to the FA Cup

United is preparing to face Brighton in the third round of the FA Cup this weekend, highlighting the critical nature of Fletcher’s current role.
