Ashworth has been let go by INEOS, who are the minority owners and decision makers at the club.
Per The Mail, club staff have been told that Wilcox is ready to take on those responsibilities that Ashworth was handling.
United may make an appointment in the future, but are happy with their structure for now.
Wilcox is said to have a very good relationship with CEO Omar Berrada.
The two worked together at Manchester City earlier in their executive careers.
