Sir Jim Ratcliffe has high hopes for Dan Ashworth, the sports director of Newcastle, to lead the team’s new football operation at Old Trafford. Jason Wilcox, the director of football at Southampton, is also a target for Man Utd because he has worked with Ashworth in the past and knows the incoming CEO, Omar Berrada.

Erik ten Hag claims he can “feel the ambition” at Manchester United as INEOS evaluates Southampton’s Jason Wilcox and Newcastle’s Dan Ashworth for the team’s new organizational structure.

It is anticipated that Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s agreement to purchase a 25% share in United, which will allow INEOS to take over football operations, will be finalized the following week.

Following the announcement of Man City’s Omar Berrada as the club’s new CEO, INEOS has focused on appointing Newcastle sports director Dan Ashworth to a comparable position at Old Trafford, however a deal is not anticipated to be easy to close.

United is considering hiring Southampton’s director of football Wilcox, who is acquainted with Berrada from their time together at City, to collaborate with Ashworth. Since joining St. Mary’s last year, the 52-year-old has already had a good effect behind the scenes.

Ten Hag stated the following about INEOS during a press conference on Thursday, one day before the team’s live broadcast on Sky Sports this weekend against Luton Town: “You see and you feel that ambition, brings a mood and a spirit.”

We are playing for Manchester United because the staff and players share the same goals as INEOS.

“We aim to succeed and win at all costs. In order to demonstrate our goals, we must develop and implement tactics.”
