Manchester United is facing a significant shift in its footballing operations, with the departure of sporting director Dan Ashworth.
This move has left a vacancy that could be pivotal to the club’s next chapter, as they look to strengthen their squad in the upcoming transfer window.
Dan Ashworth’s exit marks a new era for United, especially with the appointment of Jason Wilcox to the newly vacated position.
Jason Wilcox’s immediate challenge will be overseeing United’s recruitment strategy as the club aims to restore itself to the top of English and European football, and that could be a difficult task as the summer transfer window approaches.
The club has already begun looking at possible replacements to assist with their player recruitment.
Arsenal has been in discussions with Andrea Berta for some time, and according to journalist Gianluca Di Marzio on his X account, an official announcement could be made within the ‘next few hours.’
Manchester United has closely monitored Andrea Berta’s track record.
Known for his impressive work at Atletico Madrid, where he built a formidable squad, Berta’s expertise could make him an ideal candidate for United’s growing ambitions.
With major changes looming in United’s squad, particularly around the attack and midfield, the club is expected to make big moves during the upcoming summer transfer window.

Though Andrea Berta is expected to finalize his appointment at Arsenal soon, United’s focus remains on ensuring that the club has the right personnel in place to navigate the competitive transfer market.
With Jason Wilcox now handling day-to-day operations, the upcoming summer transfer window is likely to define United’s long-term strategy for both recruitment and player development.
As the season draws to a close, Manchester United’s sporting operations will undoubtedly undergo further restructuring.
It’s a critical period for the club to reinforce its squad, make crucial signings, and ensure that the direction under the current management is aligned with the expectations of the fans.
