Man United have placed some staff at risk of redundancy following Sir Jim Ratcliffe's review of the club's entire operations.
Manchester United are making around 250 staff redundant because they believe 'significant transformation' was required to ensure 'long-term health and success'.
Ratcliffe's review of the club's operations found United had the highest employee count in the Premier League. The British billionaire has also looked to cut costs in other areas and scrapped most staff benefits when United made the FA Cup final at the end of May.ALSO READ: United's stance on Mount after claims he could be sold
Speaking at the latest fans' forum, United's chief operating officer, Collette Roche, explained the decision to make redundancies and said: "There will be other departures too as we continue to restructure the club to ensure we have the right people in the right roles for long-term success. "We are proposing a club-wide redundancy programme, which we believe will reduce headcount by 250 roles. There is now a formal consultation under way with colleagues so I can’t say any more about the process until that is completed.
