Manchester United have announced the expected departure of a top club official after 16 years.
The Glazers have early announced plans to restructure the club as they confirmed that they have “commenced the process to explore strategic alternatives” at the club.
While Manchester United fans warmed up for a subsequent taker over of the club from the hands of the infamous Glazers, the club has taken to the club’s social media handle to announce the expected departure of a top official in the club.
A statement on the club’s website revealed that Manchester United team doctor Steve McNally is set to leave the club.
Steve McNally has been at Manchester United for 16 years since the time of Sir Alex Ferguson.
According to the statement from Manchester United, McNally will step down at the end of January.
He will reportedly start a new role as a support director with the PGMOL, which is an organization in English football that is responsible for match officials in English football.
The message on the club’s Twitter handle reads;
“After 16 years of immense service, our club doctor, Steve McNally, is to leave Manchester United.
” Under his leadership, the club has been on the forefront of innovation in sports medicine and science,
We are enormously grateful to Steve and wish him and wish him every success in his new role.”
He has been in charge of Man United’s medical department for over 16 years. He has worked with Alex Ferguson, David Moyes, Luis Van Gaal, Jose Mourinho, Ole Gunner SolskJaer, Ralf Rangnick, and most recently Erik Ten Hag.
McNally will be replaced on an interim basis by Dr Jim Moxon while the club searches for a permanent successor. Moxon, who worked most recently as club doctor for Liverpool, will start working with McNally from this week.
