O'Boyle set to leave Man Utd

Manchester United's deputy football director Andy O'Boyle is set to leave the club.

O'Boyle came to Old Trafford from the Premier League two years ago at a time when John Murtough was making changes as football director.

However, Ineos' involvement has fundamentally altered the structure of the club.

Sporting director Dan Ashworth and technical director Jason Wilcox are now in charge of football operations, effectively leaving O'Boyle with little responsibility.

He was an important bridge from the early months of the year into July, when Ashworth and chief executive Omar Berrada came to the club and had a significant involvement in the summer transfer window.

However, as the club moves forward there is no role for O'Boyle.
