Former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson is certain to miss Manchester United's second consecutive game.
Recently, there has been a heated controversy over the dismissal of Ferguson. Ferguson is the greatest legend in Manchester United's history. Since his retirement from Manchester United in 2013, he has served as an ambassador for Manchester United's global club and a club director. Ferguson has received an annual salary of 2.16 million pounds (3.8 billion won) as an ambassador.
Manchester United, however, terminated Sir Ferguson's Ambassador contract that lasted for more than a decade. Why? It is because of cost reduction. The first philosophy of Jim Ratcliffe, the owner of the "businessman," is to cut costs. It is a waste of money even for the great Ferguson. Many Manchester United legends were angry at this, and Manchester United fans were also angry.
The aftermath of the dismissal spread to Manchester United's stadium. Manchester United won 2-1 against Brentford in the eighth round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-25 season at Old Trafford in Manchester, England, on the 19th.
Ferguson has constantly watched Manchester United games unless there is a special occasion. However, he did not appear in such games. Local media analyzed that the decision was made due to the dismissal. Ferguson was located in Scotland, not Old Trafford, on the day. He wanted to see showdowns between Aberdeen, a club he used to play with, and Celtic, one of the most prestigious in Scotland.
After Ferguson's dismissal, Manchester United will hold its second match. It will play Fenerbahce against Fenerbahce in the third round of the UEFA Europa League, which will take place in 2024-25 season on Saturday. It is Manchester United's away game. The venue is Shikru Sarazolu Stadium in Istanbul, Turkiye.
Ferguson has frequently accompanied Manchester United in away matches. However, he will not be able to attend Fenerbahce's away match. "Ferguson will miss two consecutive matches since his dismissal. Ferguson missed the match against Brentford. He will not appear at the match against Fenerbahce. He will not go to Turkiye where Jose Mourinho is waiting," the British newspaper Express reported. 안전놀이터
Fenerbahce is Mourinho. He was a coach who competed with Ferguson at Chelsea and was one of the coaches who took the helm of Manchester United after Ferguson left. Ferguson has consistently expressed his good feelings towards Mourinho. However, the meeting did not happen this time. It is not known where Ferguson is headed without going to an away game.
