Alex Ferguson, a former manager of Manchester United, has been given a new position at the club.
The Scot retained a significant amount of power after leaving his position as the club’s manager in 2013.
Richard Arnold, the chief executive of the Red Devils, has assembled a think tank with important members of Manchester United and has included Ferguson.
According to Daily Mail, the 80-year-old Ferguson will be joined in the club’s think-tank by iconic captain Bryan Robson, former CEO David Gill and the current football director John Murtough.
The five-man group held its first meeting on Tuesday at the club’s training ground.
Ferguson and Gill have held the non-executive director position of the club since 2013 but their new roles are believed to be more influential than that.
This new think-tank is not thought to have a direct impact or influence on manager Erik ten Hag.
They will be dealing with issues like the redevelopment of Old Trafford and Carrington and also the club’s relationship with the fanbase.
