Key talks next week for Manchester United as INEOS eye two crucial additions

Manchester United are set for an important few days ahead as they prepare for talks over hiring Dan Ashworth.

And, according to Fabrizio Romano on his official account on X, formerly Twitter, the Red Devils also want to bring in Jason Wilcox from Southampton as another key appointment to revamp their board and recruitment team.

See below for the latest from Romano as he explains that Man Utd are set to push in negotiations with Newcastle for Ashworth, who has supposedly already said yes to moving to Old Trafford…

Ashworth has long been highly regarded in the game, and Newcastle will surely be very disappointed to lose his expertise as they look to catch up with clubs like United and others in the big six.

MUFC fans will no doubt hope this can be done quickly, with Ashworth and Wilcox looking ideal to help rebuild this team after a difficult spell since Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement in 2013.
