Sir Jim Ratcliffe has criticized Newcastle United for their handling of the situation with sporting director Dan Ashworth describing it as “silly.” Ashworth who expressed interest in becoming the inaugural sporting director at Newcastle has been placed on gardening leave.
Newcastle has set a price between £10 million to £20 million for Ashworth a figure that has puzzled figures at United. Ratcliffe the new co-owner of United called the suggestion of Ashworth being on gardening leave until 2026 “absurd” and “stupid.”
He emphasized the transient nature of the football industry and mentioned the amicable resolution in Omar Berrada’s move from Manchester City to United. Ratcliffe criticized the idea of imposing prolonged gardening leave emphasizing the need for sensible and fair periods.
