Heading into July, Manchester United officially announced that Ashworth has officially joined the team, ending months of speculation. At the same time, the media revealed that Vivel is likely to come to Old Trafford and become the team's head of recruitment.
Although Manchester United have not yet heard of the introduction of players, the management changes have gradually come to an end since Ratcliffe took over. Starting with the CEO, then to the director of football, to the technical director, to the head of recruitment, everything seems to have become more professional. Perhaps, these changes have made Manchester United fans a little unaccustomed, in fact, this is what today's football club should be, professional people, doing professional things, not Glazer's "one word".
Earlier, Manchester United and Newcastle issued a joint statement that an agreement had been reached. Newcastle have terminated Ashworth's contract and thanked him for his service to the team and wished him all the best for the future. However, the specific terms of this agreement still need to be kept confidential.
Although this agreement has few words, it is an important step for Manchester United to take the new season. Ashworth's departure from Newcastle has been a foregone conclusion over the past few months, but United and Newcastle have not been able to agree on the compensation of the contract. With the end of the year on June 30, the last day of PSR's financial regulations, Manchester United finally got this excellent manager, who does not need the so-called "gardening leave".
Ashworth has held key positions at Brighton and Newcastle, bringing in a number of fantastic players such as McAllister, Caicedo, Isak, Gordon and more. Prior to joining both teams, Ashworth also worked as technical director at the FA, bringing further development opportunities to the men's and women's teams in England. England are believed to have won the Under-17 and Under-20 World Cups a few years ago, and Ashworth has made a big contribution to this.
In addition to Ashworth, it has been reported that Christopher Vivell is also expected to arrive at Manchester United in the near future. Having worked in Germany and Austria for many years, from Hoffenheim to Salzburg and then to Leipzig, another "Red Bull team", Vivel is familiar with European players. He then moved to Chelsea, but after just seven months, he left the club in reluctance.
At the moment, when it comes to football management, Manchester United and INEOS have formed a new combination. Sir Brailsford is INEOS' sporting director, Sir Blanco is INEOS' chief executive, M. Berarda is on the horizon as CEO of Manchester United, Ashworth is sporting director, Wilcox, who follows Blackburn Rovers to win the Premier League, is technical director, and Vivel will be head of reinforcements if he can join.
In terms of the coaching staff, Ten Hag believes that his contract will be renewed soon, and Ferguson's assistant coach and former England boss McClaren, who refused to become Ajax manager, will remain in the team. Ten Hag's old friend, former Eredivisie Eagles boss Harker, and Manchester United's beloved "King of the Penalty Area" Ruud van Nistelrooy will also become assistant coaches.
The Premier League's summer transfer window has long since opened, but Manchester United have been slow to bring in new signings, partly due to the impact of the European Championship and Copa America, but more importantly, perhaps waiting for the management to be in place. Ashworth cleared the hurdles to join, Berrarda soon officially took over, and the head of recruitment, Vivier, may join, and Ratcliffe's top-down reform line is clear.
Now, the relevant management has determined that it is believed that soon, fans will receive good news about the arrival of new players, including Rashford, Casemiro and other players, and there will be a clear decision. Zi said, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and there will not be much of a problem if you are late, the key is to be professional, and when you have all the people, you can start work. It can be expected that the current change in the team will be the biggest and most important in more than 10 years.
Manchester United, how long will it take for the king to return?
