According to reports, ex-Tottenham chief Paul Mitchell is a “leading candidate” to be given a key role at Manchester United under Sir Jim Ratcliffe.He has been in a prolonged takeover battle with Qatar’s Sheikh Jassim, who has now decided to end his interest in the Premier League giants.The 71-year-old will take control of sporting matters at Old Trafford as soon as his arrival is formalised and he is expected to appoint a new director of football.
“Paul Mitchell is a leading candidate to become #MUFC sporting director under Jim Ratcliffe having first been approached in March. Long before talks advanced with the Glazers, INEOS looked at several candidates. Mitchell has also been considered for Nice before,” Jacobs tweeted. “Dan Ashworth is another name discussed by INEOS, but it’s been made clear he is not looking to leave Newcastle.”The Telegraph‘The former Monaco, Red Bull group and Southampton executive Paul Mitchell is the early frontrunner to be appointed sporting director at Manchester United although doubts persist as to how much power that position will be accorded under the new ownership.
‘It is understood that Brailsford has spoken to a range of sporting directors over the last 12 months in his position as Team Ineos director of sport as it relates to Ratcliffe’s Ligue 1 club Nice. Nevertheless, there have been no firm commitments either way. How senior any recruitment appointment would be in the new Ratcliffe-Glazer structure at United remains a major question in the game.’
