- Executive vice-chairman due to go at end of 2021
- Chelsea and Manchester City withdraw from ESL
Ed Woodward has resigned as Manchester United’s executive vice-chairman and will leave the club at the end of the year.
The 49-year-old’s decision comes after eight years in the role. While there will be speculation that the development was related to United signing up to the European Super League, sources at the club claimed that this was not the case and that his departure was amicable. United joined the other Premier League clubs in withdrawing from the new competition on Tuesday.
