Manchester United plan to lay off over 250 staff

Manchester United have come up with a plan to internally free up funds, by reducing costs.

Manchester United plan to lay off over 250 staff members to cut costs, driven by new minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

The goal is to free up resources for new player signings by reducing the number of employees, which currently exceeds 1,000.

This move has created significant concern and unrest among the club’s workforce due to Ratcliffe’s stringent operational changes.

According to ITV, Manchester United’s plan to lay off over 250 staff members will take effect before the 2024-25 campaign begins.
