MANCHESTER UNITED are interested in making Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise one of the first signings of the new Sir Jim Ratcliffe era at Old Trafford.
A move for Olise has been ruled out this month, but United have identified the 22-year-old as a transfer target.
ahead of a planned overhaul of their squad at the end of the season.
Olise signed a four-year deal at Palace in August but his new £100,000-a-week contract includes a release clause that comes into effect in the summer.
The size of that release clause is unknown, but is likely to be significantly more than the £35million figure in his previous contract.
Ratcliffe has been given total control of football operations by the Glazers under the terms of his £1.03billion deal to buy a 25 per cent stake in United, and the INEOS billionaire is pressing ahead with plans to overhaul a disastrous transfer strategy at the club.
