Manchester United chief executive Omar Berrada is sticking with his aim of marking the club's 150th anniversary in 2028 by winning the men's and women's league titles.

Berrada first outlined 'Project 150' to staff in September 2024.

United were founded as Newton Heath in 1878 and Berrada wants to mark the club's 150-year milestone in three years' time with a return to the summit of the English game.

Given the men's team just experienced their worst domestic campaign since the 1973-74 relegation season and the women's has to usurp Chelsea's unbeaten Treble winners, the task is not easy.

But, in an in-depth interview with the United We Stand fanzine, external to be published on Wednesday, Berrada says it is better to aim high than have no target at all.

"It's establishing a series of targets within a timeframe so we can focus our efforts and energy on that goal," the 47-year-old said.

"Can the team win the Premier League title by 2028? Of course.

"We've just finished 15th and it seems an impossible task. But why not aim for it? Why not do everything in our power?"
