The 46-year-old’s appointment has been driven by Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s INEOS team, who have agreed to a 25 percent stake in the club. Berrarda marks the first significant appointment by the Ratcliffe regime since the deal, which will see Ineos take charge of Manchester United’s football operations.

Berrada had initially planned to pursue a career in engineering after coming through an American schooling system in Morocco. He dropped out of his university course in Massachusetts six months after concluding the subject was not for him.

Speaking in a 2020 interview with the EU Business School, Berrarda revealed an ambition to travel to Europe led him to study at the EU Business School.

Berrarda opted for Barcelona for the final year of his three-year course in part due to his support of the Catalan giants, concluding he could learn Spanish and watch good football during 18 months in the city.

After an internship at Honda, he joined the internet provider Tiscali at the start of the internet boom, where he met his wife. His former boss at Tiscali later headhunted Berrarda as Barcelona expanded its marketing department in 2004, citing a need for his particular skill set.
