Ferdinand Becomes Man Utd First Sporting Director



Rio Ferdinand is one of a few hopefuls Manchester United have addressed about turning into their first sporting director.
United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward has discussed the position with Ferdinand, and wants to finalise an appointment before the start of next season.
United want a candidate who understands how the club works, which makes Ferdinand, who spent 12 years as a player at Old Trafford, an attractive candidate.
The person who fills the newly-created sporting director role is expected to focus on the transfer market, the academy and supporting the management team.
