Fans of the beautiful game are likely accustomed to seeing football players living their best lives on and off the pitch. However, it seems as those days of lavish living are a thing of the past for players of Manchester United, who have been reportedly forced to sign a document outlining the club's code of conduct off the field.
According to a report by The Mirror, this agreement for standards, as it has been termed, lays out a set of rules that all Red Devils players have to abide by. The report mentions that should any player choose not to sign it, they will be in breach of their contract and face possible dismissal.
Some of the key details of the code include:
- A curfew, whereby players are expected to be back in their homes at a certain time, although this will vary depending on the occasion
- A ban on any gambling activities, such as participation in casinos or betting on races
- All players are expected to avoid any situation that could damage the club's reputation
To be clear, this agreement is said to be separate from a discipline agreement that spells out procedures for breaching the code, which the report details is still in effect.
This surprising news has taken the football world by storm, with many keen to see how this development will affect the performance of the team, whose last game resulted in a disappointing 0-0 draw with table-toppers Newcastle.
As this developing story unfolds, fans of the game will have their eyes locked on the pitch, and the off-field antics, of these prestigious footballers.
Maybe it's time we all gave greater consideration to the agreement our favorite players ink!
