Ed Woodward net worth: How much is the much-maligned Man United CEO worth?

Manchester United fans are far from pleased with how their Premier League campaign began and much of their frustration has been aimed at the club hierarchy for the lack of activity in the transfer market. The Red Devils have failed to agree on a deal with Borussia Dortmund for Jadon Sancho despite beginning negotiations early in the summer, while they have seen other targets including Thiago and Sergio Reguilon join their Premier League rivals.

Man United CEO Ed Woodward has been termed as the main culprit for the club's drop in standards since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013, with many former players including Patrice Evra and Rio Ferdinand taking potshots at him in recent weeks. Here's a look at the Ed Woodward net worth and his salary at the club.

Reports suggest that Ed Woodward's Cheshire house has been put up for sale and has been listed by Savills for a guide price of £2 million. The mansion received a lot of media attention when a group of angry Man United fans attacked the property in January.  

A hooded gang of around 20 people launched flares and a smoke bomb at the house, while some in attendance were heard chanting 'he's going to die' while dialling the intercom. Woodward and his family, including his wife and two children, were not inside the property during the incident.
