Former West Ham and Man City, midfielder, Scott Sinclair, in a recent statement, has revealed the major problem at Man Utd.

According to Sinclair, the Red Devils have no influential figures in their squad.

This comes after a report from England claimed that interim boss Ralf Rangnick held talks with Cristiano Ronaldo and Harry Maguire over giving the armband to the Portuguese striker for the rest of the season.

The report added that since then, Ronaldo and Maguire have been locked in a ‘power struggle’.

Rangnick’s decision, according to the report, is to take the pressure off Maguire as he wrestles with his loss of form.

The report further stressed that Maguire is, however, reluctant to hand the band to Ronaldo because of fears of losing the captaincy permanently.

“You look through the side and I don’t know where the leadership qualities are,” Sinclair told the talkSPORT talkSPORT.

“I look at [Raphael] Varane, he is just in the door and he’s not been brilliant, Maguire, obviously Ronaldo.

“Then you’re looking in the midfield, where I think the captain should be, that’s the heart of the team. That’s where I think, ideally, you want your captain.

“You’ve got [Scott] McTominay and Fred; McTominay for Scotland has got leadership qualities, but he is not picked every week.

“Bruno [Fernandes], for me, is not captain material and then you have got [David] De Gea.

“So I think there is a big problem at Manchester United with leaders anyway.”
