He's just going to be a consultant. Won't be involved in day-to-day operations.

So WTF is he going to consult on? How to cut the grass on the pitch, what color the nets should be, or whether to use a ball with stars or triangles?

I'm sure they will ask his opinion on things like managers, players, style of play, etc. He's not going to hold a title like Director of Football Operations or anything like that. Just a consultant.

Learn me up. The Tweet suggests he's doing something similar to "buying in"

Why would he give them money for his advice?

They are hiring them. That is how he is "joining" them.

They were talking about it on the radio this morning.

99.9% of every software consultant I've ever worked with directly affected the day to day operations of software development.

So I'd assume you are telling me that they are going to consult him on soccer matters....but he won't affect day to day operation? Again I ask what they hell are they paying him for them?
