According to reports, Manchester United plans to say goodbye to a greatly popular staff member as part of the current restructuring in the club by INEOS.
Mail Sport revealed exclusively on Tuesday how Sir Jim Ratcliffe plans to continue with the cost reduction measures in Old Trafford, with more than 100 employees who will become redundant.
This occurs after the club selected around 250 employees last year, while several other money savings measures have been implemented in recent times.
This included canceling the free trip for the coach for the staff to the final of the FA Cup last year, reducing ambassador salaries, increasing ticket prices, while Ratcliffe also decided to end the role of £ 2 million to the Sir Alex Ferguson's year with the club.
And, according to The timesUnited has now decided to fire Jackie Kay long data, who has worked at the club since 1995.
Kay's imminent departure was described as “brutal”, with the popular member of the team operations personnel who previously served as executive assistant of former CEO David Gill. A period by the logistics of the first team in the Carrington Training Field of the Club also passed.

The report states that both United players and a succession of managers were great fans of Kay, who was labeled as the 'oil in the machine' in the club.
It is said that Kay was informed of his departure last week, with his departure as part of a broader performance review under Sir Dave Brailsford and Jason Wilcox, although it is not believed that it is linked to the last dismissals.
It was believed that the staff was “annoying” in the news, and many highlighted how Kay had “given their lives to the club.”
The former United Ashley Young star has paid tribute to Kay, claiming that she is the united hero in the United Training Field.
“She is simply brilliant,” he said. She is like the mother for everyone. If there is any problem or there is something we need to solve, it is a case of “Jackie, can you do this?”, “Jackie, can you help with this?”
“I'm sure there are times when your phone looks when it sounds and should think” no, I'm not answering. “But she's always there for you.
The last cuts come with the review of INEOS in the current club. United had 1,112 employees before Ratcliffe took a participation in the club at the beginning of last year, which was, with much, the largest in the Premier League and considerably higher than the rest of the big ones. Manchester City, for example, used 520 during the same period of time.
The movement aims to release effective for Ruben Amorim to spend on the first team while looking to return the club to their previous glories. Despite record revenues, United has lost £ 300 million in the last three years.

The perception is that the field costs inside and outside the field remain high. Ratcliffe has injected around £ 241 million, which is helping with the development of Carrington, but there are fundamental problems within Old Trafford that must be addressed.
The club is also considering going to a new stadium of 100,000 capacity or carrying out a large -scale renewal of Old Trafford, and will need to find the funds to do so.
It is not believed that the personnel have been informed of the latest redundancy proposals. The news is expected to formally break them at some point in the near future. It is not believed that the final numbers have decided.
All areas of the business have been attacked for possible savings. The objective is to make the business thinner and ensure that the entire approach is placed to provide love the funds necessary to strengthen.
The fulfillment of United with the rules of benefit and sustainability of the Premier League (PSR) is also at the forefront of thought.
