United director Sir Dave Brailsford, per the BBC, led a review of the club’s operations over the past few months.

New investors INEOS have come to the conclusion that many departments are bloated.

These cost cutting measures are seen as necessary for the club to be turned around.

United have 1,150 full-time members of staff, which is more than any Premier League club.

Interim chief executive Jean-Claude Blanc gave out the news to staff in a meeting.
