"It is great to be back with the club and I am delighted to be taking on this new role. "We are moving in the right direction and I am looking forward to continuing to work with Ole and his coaching team, and now with John as the Football Director, to help bring young players through and further develop the football side of the club. It’s fantastic to see that all the staff here are driving Manchester United forward towards a new era of success."Matt Judge, who has led a lot of United's recent transfer acquisitions and sales, also has a new title - Director of Football Negotiations - and he will report to Murtough.
