Murtough joined Man Utd in 2013 with a CV that had him working at the Premier League, Everton and Fulham.
The 50-year-old has been the football director for over five years after spending his initial time with United in charge of the academy and scouting.
It is expected that he will be replaced by Newcastle sporting director Dan Ashworth who is a long term target of Man Utd and is currently on gardening leave as a result of the club’s interest.
