"I work as a cleaner at Man United and I currently get paid £7.80 per hour. At the moment I struggle to put food on the table for my family and I often have to have cut-price meals … considering the amount of money in football, it would be great to see the club paying all their staff a fair and decent wage."
That’s the sad story from an employee at Old Trafford – one of many staffers at Premier League clubs who do not earn enough money to cover the cost of living.
The charity Citizens UK say only four of the 20 Premier League clubs – well done Chelsea, Everton, Liverpool and West Ham – have committed to paying the voluntary living wage. That’s despite a whopping £1.41 billion spent on players in the English top-flight this summer.
