Naming a director of football took Manchester United over two years, during which time their appetite for such an appointment was quite reasonably questioned. But the Red Devils have finally concluded that two heads are better than one…
It was announced on Wednesday that
Darren Fletcher’s role at the club has been formalised as technical director. The former midfielder will ‘add technical input and direction into all football and performance areas… focusing on a co-ordinated and long-term approach to player and squad development, helping maintain the integral link between the Academy and the first team, aligned with Manchester United’s values and culture.’
