FERGIE TO SIGN A ROLLING DEAL
’Sir Alex Ferguson has frequently bemoaned the fact that,
despite being one of the most successful managers in British
history, his salary has been some way short of the wages
commanded by most of his players. As he approaches
pensionable age, though, the Manchester United manager has
finally reached the top strata of the club’s pay structure.
He expects to sign a new long-term contract later this week,
an £80,000-a-week deal that will make him the best-paid
manager in football and leave only Roy Keane ahead of him on
the United payroll.'
