Manchester United’s new interim CEO Jean-Claude Blanc has arrived at Selhurst Park ahead of tonight’s Premier League clash against Crystal Palace.
The suave Frenchman arrived at Old Trafford along with Sir Jim Ratcliffe earlier this year.
Following spells at Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain, United have hired what appears to be a shrewd businessman, who knows the football world.
We certainly hope so!
Ahead of United’s match at Selhurst Park tonight, Blanc was seen arriving as is expected to be in one of the director’s boxes for tonight’s game.

It looks like Blanc took security with him to the game.
Blanc will be part of the team that will decide on Erik ten Hag’s future at the end of the season, so he will have a keen interest on the levels of performance seen on the pitch.
United go into the game in dire form but something has to change. We’ve got an FA Cup final coming up and it would bode well if we could string a few wins together ahead of that.
