Cristiano Ronaldo has not been included in Manchester United's leadership group this season.
The Telegraph says manager Erik ten Hag has been able to unite the dressing room and has everyone pulling together in support of his values, aided by leaders at the club.
And a four-man group includes captain Harry Maguire, Bruno Fernandes, David de Gea and Tom Heaton - but not CR7.
Fernandes and Heaton are believed to be particularly important due to the role they played in the dressing room during a period of disarray last season.
Ronaldo, meanwhile, threw strops after being substituted during matches and was unhappy when he started games on the bench.
There were calls for him to replace Maguire as United captain but they have died down despite the England star also losing his place under Ten Hag.
