Man Utd sporting director Ashworth leaves after five months
Manchester United’s sporting director, Tony Ashworth, has stepped down from his role after just five months in the position. The club made the announcement earlier today, citing personal reasons for Ashworth’s departure.
Ashworth joined the club in January with high hopes of revitalizing Manchester United’s player recruitment strategies and overall sporting performance. However, it seems that his time at the club has been cut short due to unforeseen circumstances.
During his brief tenure, Ashworth played a key role in the signing of several new players and the restructuring of the club’s youth development system. His departure comes as a shock to many fans and pundits who were optimistic about the changes he was implementing.
Manchester United’s CEO, Ed Woodward, expressed his gratitude for Ashworth’s contributions to the club and wished him well in his future endeavors. The search for a new sporting director is already underway, with Woodward promising to find a suitable replacement in the coming weeks.
Despite Ashworth’s departure, Manchester United remains focused on their upcoming matches and is determined to achieve success on the pitch. The club is confident that they will overcome this setback and continue to build towards a brighter future.
