Former Manchester United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward has been appointed to the board of trustees for Bloomsbury Football Foundation.
Woodward, who spent a total of 16 years at Old Trafford, has joined the London-based charity which aims to give access to football to young people from diverse backgrounds. The charity was founded in 2018 and currently helps 5,000 young people.
A statement from the foundation read: "With Ed joining our board, he will play a key role in advising the team as we move towards our goal of getting 20,000 young people per week in London on the pitch by 2028."

Woodward said: "I am thrilled to be joining Bloomsbury Football Foundation as a trustee. This is an exciting opportunity to join a charity that is already having a significant impact on the lives of young Londoners using the power of football.
“Visiting a Bloomsbury Football session reaffirmed my belief that football has the power to change lives. It is clear the support the charity is already receiving is making a real impact on the pitch. The session represented the diversity of London – the coaches were supportive, players were engaged, and they seemed to be enjoying every minute.”
Woodward advised the Glazer family on their acquisition of United in 2005 and took charge of full operations as the club's executive vice-chairman eight years later in 2013 after the retirement of chief executive David Gill. United spent more than £1billion in transfer fees during Woodward's time in charge and his tenure was widely regarded as a failure, with just three trophies won.
