Manchester United and Newcastle United have finally reached an agreement for Dan Ashworth, with the executive set to start immediately.
Manchester United have made an official statement to confirm the appointment of Dan Ashworth from Newcastle United, as the two clubs have finally reached an agreement. There has been a significant impasse over the last few months, with the two clubs now agreeing on a compensation package.
Manchester United agreed on Dan Ashworth’s fee
For months now, Manchester United and Newcastle United have been at an impasse over a deal for Dan Ashworth. Since the INEOS agreement to run football operations at Old Trafford, Sir Jim Ratcliffe has identified the men to run the club at his behest, and the former Brighton executive is one of his key targets.
Since Manchester United expressed an interest and possibly talked in the background, Ashworth tended his resignation, as Newcastle United immediately sanctioned him to gardening leave. The Magpies reportedly demanded £20 million for him from the Red Devils, something unheard of before in English football.
Manchester United had been closing in on Ashworth for a long time now, and now they may have found an agreement with the Magpies for the executive’s release. Sir Ratcliffe even held talks with Amanda Staveley earlier, although nothing came to fruition back then.
Manchester United were considerably behind Newcastle’s valuation of Ashworth, although now they may have agreed on a compensation package. The amount for him remains undisclosed, as many expect it to be a considerable number, given how much the Magpies were earlier demanding.
Ashworth is to start his work immediately
Manchester United have yet to hit any stride in the transfer market, but with the arrival of Ashworth, things could accelerate considerably. He will work closely with former Manchester City man Omar Berrada and ex-Southampton executive Jason Wilcox to get things rolling.
Ashworth will have a significant role to play in helping Manchester United build their summer plans and execute it to perfection. He has a brilliant track record from his time at Brighton and Newcastle, and the Red Devils will hope for a similar effect at Old Trafford.
