'Growing discontent' within Man Utd women's teamMoved out of training facility to accommodate menPFA ready to speak to club on behalf of playersWHAT HAPPENED?

It's been a tough week for the Red Devils. It began when Sir Jim Ratcliffe caused a stir by admitting there is not yet a detailed plan regarding improvements for the women's team going forward, with the focus of minority owners INEOS having been on the men's team – referred to as 'the first team'.

Since then, news has emerged that the women's side has moved into a temporary facility to accommodate the men, whose own building is being revamped. Two key senior players have also left the club, with Mary Earps and Nikita Parris expected to follow Lucia Garcia and Katie Zelem out of the door in the coming days.

This is the second time in three years that the PFA has been alerted to concerns within the Red Devils' women's team, as players previously reached out in 2021 to try and improve conditions.

DID YOU KNOW?

It's not just off the pitch where there have been concerns for Man Utd. Despite an FA Cup triumph, last season ended in a worst-ever Women's Super League finish of fifth, Marc Skinner's side finishing some 20 points behind eventual champions Chelsea.
