Manchester United are reportedly "likely" to scrap plans to revamp Old Trafford and increase the capacity to 88,000 seats in favour of another summer transfer spree to back manager Jose Mourinho.
According to the Daily Mail's Mike Keegan, a club insider has said the proposed revamp is still under review but likely to take a backseat at this time.
Mourinho has told executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward he wants investments in the ground in order to improve the atmosphere at Old Trafford, but the squad is in need of upgrades as well.
The Portuguese manager has been vocal about what he perceives as a lack of atmosphere inside the stadium, per Gerard Brand of Sky Sports:
"He played only three (matches) and the first at Old Trafford, and I think Old Trafford, in spite of being a quiet stadium, the pitch is big, the grass is nice and obviously the players feel very comfortable playing here.
