Man Utd news: Andrew Ward and Ian Nolan to leave Old Trafford club

Two more significant departures from Manchester United have been confirmed.

Director of media relations and public affairs Andrew Ward and media director Ian Nolan are to leave the club.

Ward is best known as the United official who accompanied head coach Ruben Amorim to his news conferences.

The exits are not part of the redundancy programme and both will remain in position until their replacements are confirmed.

George McCaffery will step up and be alongside Amorim at future media engagements.

United returned from their post-season tour of Malaysia and Hong Kong on Saturday.

They are due to play Leeds in Stockholm in their first pre-season game on 19 July before heading to the United States to take part in a Premier League tournament along with West Ham, Everton and Bournemouth.
