Manchester United's former interim chief executive reportedly opposed plans by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS to stop allowing staff to work from home.

Reports suggested that Ratcliffe told United staff workers to come into the office or 'seek alternative employment'.

The co-owner of the Red Devils wanted to abolish working from home as he looked to boost productivity levels behind the scenes, with the British billionaire aiming to transform the club from top to bottom, on and off the pitch.

However, the measure wasn't popular with everybody, as it has been reported by the Athletic that former interim executive Patrick Stewart opposed the plans.
