Drama unfolds as Dan Ashworth is placed on gardening leave amid Manchester United's interest. Newcastle United faces challenges as the Red Devils aim to poach their sporting director.

Manchester United's interest in Newcastle United's sporting director, Dan Ashworth, has sparked a whirlwind of drama at St James' Park. Ashworth, expressing his desire to join Manchester United, has been placed on gardening leave by Newcastle, causing tension between the two clubs. While Sir Jim Ratcliffe remains determined to bring Ashworth to Old Trafford, Newcastle is not making it easy for the Red Devils to poach their key personnel.

Adding to the chaos, Newcastle's new Dutch mega-scout, Marcel Bout, was seen at a recent match alongside Ashworth, hinting at potential collaborations between the two. The situation becomes even more intriguing as Manchester United considers sharing Ashworth with Newcastle during the transition period.

In response to the escalating saga, Manchester United has made it clear they are not willing to meet Newcastle's £20 million price tag for Ashworth. Talks with other potential candidates, including Southampton's Jason Wilcox and Chelsea analyst Kyle Macaulay, signal a backup plan in case the deal with Ashworth falls through.

The standoff continues as Newcastle stands firm in their decision to put Ashworth on gardening leave while Manchester United strategizes their next move. The football world eagerly watches as this transfer saga unfolds, showcasing the high stakes and intense competition between these premier league clubs.
