Manchester United's women's team are set to train at St George's Park during the start of their pre-season preparations after being kicked out of their usual building to accommodate the men's team.

£50million renovaitons to the Red Devils' men's team Carrington base have meant that the women's team players were asked to move into a temporary base to accommodate the men.

United were said to consider several options in regards to where to base the women's team,before concluding that keeping them at Carrington by any means possible was the most preferable outcome.


Nevertheless,the decision to displace them from their usual facilities has disappointed some members of their squad,along with staff.

Now,however,according to The Athletic,the women's team have finally found a home,with Marc Skinner's side set to set up base at the Football Association's St George's Park. 

Ratcliffe said he had been 'pretty much focused on how to resolve the 'first team' issues 

Ratcliffe,meanwhile,has recently overseen an end-of-season review into the men's team,which saw INEOS decide to keep Erik ten Hag in place as manager.

But when Ratcliffe was asked about the club's plans for their women's side during a lengthy interview with Bloomberg,the 71-year-old had little to say.

Asked what he would be doing with the women's team,Ratcliffe replied: 'Well they've just won the FA Cup.'

Pushed further for information,and whether United would look for outside investors like Chelsea,Ratcliffe said: 'We haven't really got into that level of detail with the women's football team yet.

'We've been pretty much focused on how do we resolve the first team issues,certainly in that environment. That's been pretty full-time for the first six months.'
