Manchester United are to cut up to 200 further jobs as part of a strategy they claim will transform the club into a more lean operation. Having made 250 staff redundant last summer, United confirmed on Monday that there would be further job reductions of between 150 and 200 employees.

The new cuts come 12 months after Manchester United's last round of job losses and will impact all areas of the club, with INEOS determined to reduce the size of the workforce

London: Manchester United said on Monday they expect to make up to 200 fresh job cuts as part of a “transformation plan” to improve the club’s financial sustainability. Around 250 employees were made redundant last year in a first wave of cost-cutting measures after INEOS chairman Jim Ratcliffe bought a stake in the Premier League club.
