Dan Ashworth reportedly 'inadvertently' emailed Newcastle United revealing incoming Manchester United chief executive Omar Berrada was tapping him up.
Dan Ashworth reportedly ‘inadvertently’ emailed Newcastle United revealing incoming Manchester United chief executive Omar Berrada was tapping him up.
The new United co-owner described the prospect of Ashworth facing up to 18 months in limbo under the terms of his contract with the Magpies as “completely stupid”. Following the additions of Berrada – who does not officially join the Old Trafford club until mid-July – and Jason Wilcox, among others, Ratcliffe is still working on a deal to bring in Ashworth as his new sporting director.
In a huge error, Ashworth ‘sent a blind copy to his own Newcastle address’, which ‘disclosed the covert negotiations with Berrada’, at a point in which Man Utd had not informed Newcastle of their interest. These people, who Ratcliffe described as ‘capable’ during a rant about his failure to land Ashworth, ‘were potentially breaching Premier League guidelines’, which has ‘increased chatter in football circles of Ratlciffe not understanding how the industry works’.Furthermore, the British billionaire ‘has angered Man Utd employees by removing staff perks around the FA Cup final and banning working from home, upsetting some within the club’.
Ratcliffe has previously suggested that this period ends near the end of 2025, leaving him desperate to bring him in sooner.
