Newcastle sporting director, Dan Ashworth will be joining Manchester United anytime soon. This is coming MUFC legend, Gary Neville hailed his work at the club, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he is focused on Newcastle United for the foreseeable future because he wants the club to be able to compete commercially with the rest of the top teams in the EPL.
Dan added that driving interest in the club and increasing its revenue will help Newcastle compete better.
His words, “What’s really difficult is to be able to compete commercially as well. Some of those [current top six] clubs have been global brands for decades; that’s one of our biggest challenges.”
“We’ve got to get ourselves into a situation where, not only are we a top-six club on the pitch, but a top six-club off it. We’ve really got to try to drive the revenues and interest in the club which will give us more ammunition to be able to compete on the pitch.”
WOW.
