Manchester United’s plan, co -owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, reducing around 200 more jobs, part of the ongoing cost -saving measures, it is claimed that the club is “broke”.
Ratcliffe has been officially over the beginning of last year and has already reduced the club’s non-soccer workforce by a quarter in the summer.
Further measures to reduce the expenses were the termination of Sir Alex Ferguson’s salary and the reduction of the money, which serves as an ambassador to legendary former players. Many long -time employees have already moved on and several employees have been withdrawn. The fans also feel the pinch, whereby the ticket prices were increased and the concession rates were eliminated.
United achieved sales of 661.8 million GBP in the amount of 661.8 million for the 2023/24 season.
The guardian writes that ratcliffe believes that 200 additional work cuts are “necessary to help the club avoid going”. Financial mismanagement in recent years has been held responsible for the current situation, but there is hope that “painful” and “unpopular” measures that are now being carried out can restore financial health by 2027.
With around 1,000 employees in the books last summer, the United workforce could soon be just a little more than half of what it was.
Critics have pointed out that the removal of hundreds of everyday people from the payroll does not completely cover the annual salary of a player of the first team who earns hundreds of thousands a week. United, shortly after the expansion of his contract, the hiring of Ruben Amorim and the dismissal of Dan Ashworth as sports director, spent releasing Erik ten HAG within a few months.
