Manchester United have identified Dan Ashworth as their No 1 target to become the club’s sporting director. Although an approach has yet to be made to Newcastle United, that is anticipated as the new regime at Old Trafford seek to recruit Ashworth.
No agreement has been reached for the 52-year-old to embark upon the potential switch and any move for him will not be straightforward, given he is contracted to Newcastle United. However, the situation is expected to develop rapidly, with Ashworth thought to be open to the opportunity of joining the Manchester United football structure under INEOS.
Before his move to , Ashworth told The Athletic in 2020 how he considers his job. “I always draw that I sit in the middle of the wheel and on the outside is the head of each department,” he said. “The job of the technical director is to just keep that wheel spinning by connecting all those spokes together and, when one of those heads of department leaves, recruit them.
