The end of the season saw the club's longest serving player and joint captain, Bryan Robson , quit Old Trafford after 13 years to become Middlesbrough 's player-manager. Dion Dublin , who was unable to reclaim a regular place in the first team, was linked with a move away from Old Trafford for much of the season, but a move to Everton in November fell through and he was still at the club when the season ended. May, 24, was signed by Ferguson in hope that he would develop into an eventual long-term successor to Steve Bruce.
