MANCHESTER UNITED are reportedly keen on snatching away Atletico Madrid’s sporting director after their woeful start to the season.
Andrea Berta has been with the Spanish giants for a decade and has garnered an impressive reputation for signing the right players.

United have struggled in recent years to get the right faces through the door after spending big money on players who have failed to live up to the hype.
Most recently the £47m signing of Andre Onana this summer is yet to show his worth while £73m man Jadon Sancho is currently exiled from the club despite arriving with huge expectation.
And according to The Independent, Berta is being eyed by the Red Devils with his transfer record being one thing that has caught the eye.
A potential deal is understood to not have any impact on United’s current managing director John Murtough though.
However the Manchester giants will face competition if they’re to get hold of their man with other top teams also interested.
Tottenham are said to be looking into reshaping their executive team after managing director of football Fabio Paratici announced his resignation earlier this year.
Berta is a possible option for the North Londoners who are in the midst or a rebuild on the pitch too under the watchful eye of Ange Postecoglou.
While PSG are reportedly also looking into offering up a role for the wanted exec.

There’s rumoured to be unrest around the Parisians’ structure with and identity as they still go on without a Champions League trophy.
And their European dreams took another hit last night when they were embarrassed by Newcastle United 4-1.
