Manchester United have confirmed the appointment of Dan Ashworth as their new sporting director following a deal with Newcastle United. The agreement, which had been delayed for more than four months due to compensation package negotiations, was finalized with Newcastle accepting an offer of significantly less than £10 million. Ashworth, 53, will commence his role at Old Trafford immediately, working closely with Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox. The terms of the agreement remain confidential between the clubs. This move is seen as a major plus for Manchester United as they look to strengthen their management team.
