Why Man United want Dan Ashworth

Описание: Manchester United want Dan Ashworth to be their new sporting director.
Ashworth has been placed on gardening leave after informing Newcastle of his desire to leave the club.

Newcastle are now chasing a £20 million fee to release Ashworth from his contract. So, how will this battle between the clubs play out as both teams chase Champions League football next season. And why is the ex-Brighton Technical Director so sought after?
