The successful applicant will work closely with United’s nutritionist to create menus suitable for players to eat at work and take home.

They will also be required to be available to travel to all matches including overseas, as they feed Cristiano Ronaldo and Co.

United advertised for a new recruitment analyst last month, although a number of existing staff members have left this year.

Ralf Rangnick’s consultancy role was canned following his exit as interim manager.

Chief transfer negotiator Matt Judge has quit the club.

While senior scouts Jim Lawlor and Marcel Bout have also exited.

Experienced No2 Mike Phelan won’t work at the club as a first team coach next season.

The 59-year-old is not required on the coaching side, following the arrivals of Mitchell van der Gaag and Steve McClaren as part of Ten Hag’s coaching team.

Phelan remains under contract, however, and could stay in a different capacity.

If he is no longer required at all, as pointed out by The Athletic, United will have to negotiate his exit.
