It wasn’t just the end of the contract: Man. United takes new tough action against Sir Alex Ferguson

New decision by the ‘Red Devils’ owners prevents the historic coach from entering the team’s cabins

Days after the termination of the contract with Sir Alex Ferguson , who received around 2 million euros annually as a global ambassador for Manchester United , INEOS, owner of the Red Devils , banned the historic coach from appearing in the club’s dressing room.

The termination of the contract, part of the budget cuts policy that INEOS has been following, was reportedly negotiated amicably between Ferguson and Sir Jim Ratcliffe, CEO of the investment group that acquired Man. United , but now a new rule comes into force that allows former figures to visit the cabins after matches.

This practice was not limited to Alex Ferguson. Bobby Charlton, for example, was also a regular presence with the players after matches. Despite this, the Scot, who has won the Premier League 13 times and has won the Champions League on two occasions, will continue, according to the British press, to be welcome at Old Trafford, where he regularly attends matches for the club he managed for 26 seasons.

It should be remembered that, when the contract was terminated, Eric Cantona expressed his displeasure with the decision, saying that “Ferguson should be able to do whatever he wanted at the club until the day he dies.”
