Former Manchester United striker Eric Cantona has criticized his former club for the decision to stop paying Alex Ferguson.

"Sir Alex Ferguson should be able to do whatever he wants at Manchester United until he dies. This decision by the club shows a lack of respect. It is absolutely scandalous! Sir Alex Ferguson will always be my boss. And I will throw all the leaders of Manchester United into a big bag of shit," Cantona said in a statement on social media.
The Scotsman, who previously coached MU, has been working as the club's ambassador in recent years and received a salary for it. As part of cost optimization, the Red Devils decided to stop paying him.
