According to reports, former sports director of Man United, Dan Ashworth, got a new role out of football, three months after leaving Old Trafford.
The 53 -year -old man was abruptly eliminated by Man United in December, since he was taken to the club from Newcastle United only five months before.
Mail Sport revealed that the co -owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe had frustrated by what was considered the indecision of Ashworth, particularly with respect to a definitive plan with respect to the future of the previous manager Erik Ten Hag and the potential successor of the Dutchman.
Ashwotth's 159 days of employment cost an amazing man £ 4.1 million, including his reward.
When announcing his departure through the official website of the club, United issued a brutal statement of 41 words after the decision made by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Company.
He said: 'Dan Ashworth will leave his role as sports director of Manchester United by mutual agreement.

“We would like to thank Dan for their work and support during a transition period for the club and wishing for the best for the future.”
Last week, United's financial results showed that interest payments in the leverage acquisition of the Glazers have now exceeded 1 billion, while United must be 391 million in transfer fees.
With Old Trafford, he wobbles from that financial position, Ashworth already moved to new pastures, according to The times.
The former technical director of Brighton has assumed an advice role with the Warwickshire County Cricket Club.
He already has a relationship with the Birmingham headquarters, having joined his Crickt's Audit Committee in 2021.
That honorary role involved the supervision of what Warwickshire called its elite equipment and high performance structure.
Warwickshire, who plays in Edgbaston, is currently recruiting for performance director with an imminent appointment.
However, there are few expectations that this role is delivered to Ashworth, especially due to the discrepancy between salaries in the Cricket and first -class football.
It is claimed that Ashworth will work on an independent role and advise “in a variety of issues, including high performance.”
