Ed Woodward accepts first job since Manchester United exit

Ed Woodward has accepted his first job since leaving his role as Manchester United's executive vice-chairman last year.

Woodward, who spent a total of 16 years at Old Trafford, has joined the board of EStars as a non-executive director. Woodward has joined the educational esports company which claims to be 'at the heart of the fastest-growing sport in the world'.

EStars say they 'partner with educators to provide an engaging, inclusive learning experience through online gaming'. The company was founded in 2017 and former Newcastle goalkeeper Tim Krul has been a shareholder since its inception.
