QQJILI Casino : Transfer expert Dan Asworth has officially left his position at Necastle, but “Chich” is still waiting for compensation from MU.
A few days ago, the British media revealed that MU was in contact with Dan Ashworth, Newcastle’s sports director, to fill a similar position at Old Trafford . The source said that the sports director of INEOS, billionaire Jim Ratcliffe’s corporation, is a close friend of Ashworth and played a role in promoting this deal.

Most recently, Newcastle’s homepage has just confirmed the departure of Dan Ashworth extremely briefly. “We feel very disappointed that Dan chose to leave. Despite this, life must continue and we will immediately look for a new sporting director. We would like to thank Dan for everything he has done for Newcastle and send our best wishes to him and his entire family.” CEO Darren Eales spoke.
A notable point here is that Newcastle is still paying Dan Ashworth! That means Ashworth has resigned but is still a member of the St James’ Park home team. This move shows the former Brighton sporting director’s determination to leave and his trust in Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
According to Mirror sources, this story is still complicated because Newcastle and MU have not yet reached a compensation agreement. Newcastle side wants to receive up to 20 million pounds for this deal, while according to Sky Sports, MU only agreed to pay 10 million pounds. However, the latest move shows that Newcastle is weak at the negotiating table.
If successful in recruiting Dan Ashworth, this will be Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s “second brick” at MU. Previously, the British billionaire also successfully recruited Omar Berrada, football director of City Football Group, Man City’s parent company.
Dan Ashworth, 53 years old, is working as Newcastle’s sporting director. He is highly appreciated for his ability to find players. Since the 2019/20 season until now, Dan Ashworth has made 33 transfer deals for Brighton and Newcastle and most of them have been very successful.
Among them, it is worth noting that there are many famous names in the current Premier League such as Mac Allister (switched to Liverpool), Leandro Trossard (switched to Arsenal), Moise Caicedo (switched to Chelsea) or Brighton’s Kaoru Mitoma. These are all “cheap” deals but bring great value both professionally and financially.
When moving to Newcastle in 2022, Dan Ashworth continues to help “Magpies” recruit very quality names such as Nick Pope, Sven Botman, Alexander Isak, Anthony Gordon, Harry Barnes or Sandro Tonali. However, Dan Ashworth’s power at Newcastle is not guaranteed as promised. Therefore, this transfer expert chose to leave.
