Speculation that Michael Edwards has been in negotiations over a role at Manchester United have been labelled 'fiction'.
Reports earlier this week had suggested the former Liverpool sporting director - who left the club in the summer after 11 years to be replaced by Julian Ward - was in talks over a role at Old Trafford. However, the claims have been rubbished by Sky Sports' Melissa Reddy.
The 42-year-old decided to quit on his own terms in order to take a sabbatical and spend more time with his family. There were no clauses or conditions of his departure, meaning he is able to undertake a new role wherever and whenever he is ready.
