Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has reacted to the Premier League club’s decision to end the ambassadorial deal of legendary manager, Sir Alex Ferguson.
In a tweet on Tuesday, Ferdinand said “no one is safe” at Old Trafford.
He wrote: “If Sir Alex can be taken out, then NO ONE IS SAFE at @ManUtd – anyone can get it now. Ineos sending a message to ANYONE at the club?!?”

Ferguson will now step back from his current ambassadorial role at the end of the season.
The decision has been taken as part of a cost-cutting drive at United, since Sir Jim Ratcliffe bought a minority stake in February.
United have also finalised the redundancies of 250 members of staff, saving around £45 million in the process.
Real Madrid Star, Kylian Mbappe has revealed on Monday that he was the victim of “fake news” after a Swedish newspaper reported an investigation had been opened for rape following a visit by the Real Madrid star’s entourage to Stockholm.
In other news, Mbappe claimed in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that there was a link between the report in the Aftonbladet newspaper and his hearing before a French league committee on Tuesday in his bitter dispute over unpaid wages with his former club Paris Saint-Germain.
“FAKE NEWS !!!!. It’s becoming so predictable, on the eve of the hearing, as if by chance,” Mbappe posted.
The 25-year-old player’s entourage called the report a “slanderous rumour” and threatened to take legal action.
Mbappe claims he is owed 55 million euros ($60 million) by the Qatari-owned French champions.
The 2018 World Cup winner was not selected for France’s Nations League fixtures last week, and spent Thursday and Friday in the Swedish capital.
