Manchester United academy set for overhaul with head of youth player recruitment Derek Langley ready to leave

Major changes to Manchester United's academy are expected over the coming months, with their head of youth player recruitment primed to leave offering the first indication of a recasting.

Derek Langley, instrumental in bringing through Danny Welbeck, Adnan Januzaj and Tom Cleverley, is ready to depart at the end of the season.

He is understood to be unsettled by the extensive adjustments at youth levels and disillusioned at a lack of communication coursing through Carrington.

United's root-and-branch review means every senior position underneath head of academy Nicky Butt is up for grabs in the coming months, with prospective new employees already being interviewed.

Sportsmail understands Tottenham's head of coaching and player development, John McDermott, is someone under consideration for Langley's role but is not thought to be interested.

United's system is one which brought through the famous Class of '92 but has struggled to fulfil expectations over the last few years.

Butt has been performing the role since Brian McClair's departure last February to start as the Scottish FA's performance director but there is a recognition inside the club that he needs further help.

Langley, meanwhile, has recently been assisted on the administrative side by club secretary John Alexander until United appointed new faces.

But his time at the club looks likely to come to an end, while United are desperate to claw back ground lost to rivals Manchester City.

City's recruitment drive has been seen as 'over-zealous' by their rivals, one of the reasons United considered boycotting youth derby matches.

The blue half of Manchester has also invested £200million on the extravagant City Football Academy across the road from the Etihad Stadium, housing all their teams.

Building an academy stadium in Salford is something under consideration by United, who have endured the ignominy of having to call off Under 18 fixtures through lack of numbers at a higher age group.

They are, however, in the process of capturing young talent, with the signing of 16-year-old Italian central defender Luca Ercolani all but sealed after impressing on trial.
