Jason Wilcox - New technical director

I think Vivell’s redbull betwork comes in handy there, albeit they are focused more towards Africa. I thought the Malian lad, Kone was Vivell’s work bearing fruit.

Could well be, I think those smaller/lesser known leagues are really where the 'data' side will come in + Vivell's background was in this area. Major European leagues I would be surprised if United (and every other PL club) doesn't have huge lists of targets from teenager upwards and strong views already on who they like/don't like.

I think it’s been well reported that he was let go due to his resistance to making staff cuts in the football department.

There's been numerous different stories about why he was fired. Most likely it was a combination of a few of them, rather than just one specific thing.
