The Sun introduced Manchester United s new training base: 50 million pounds, with a hairdressing place % put into use in 268

The Sun published an article introducing Manchester United's new training base.

Manchester United's £50m luxury training base will be opened next month, and the Red Devils are struggling to catch up with their competitors after Ronaldo's bombardment of club facilities and Sir Ratcliff adopts his suggestion a year ago. The five-star sports complex will welcome coach Amorin to lead the team back from the US preseason on August 4.

The plan is run by Ratcliff's partner Foster Architects, which will also be responsible for building the new home stadium of 100,000 for Manchester United's 2030 completion. Since last summer, Manchester United has temporarily used the youth training academy facilities, and the double-story first-team building at the Carrington base has been renovated. Although Manchester United has not disclosed the facilities image, the Times has disclosed that it is equipped with top performance optimization equipment.

Manchester United, which is said to be financially tight, completed its upgrade through Ratcliff's special investment of £236 million in infrastructure, which was promised by Latcliff after acquiring a 27.7% minority stake in Manchester United. The second floor has a player's leisure area and a custom barber shop. This will be the first training base in the UK with a professional hair salon, but it is not yet certain that exclusive barbers will be hired or players will be allowed to bring their own stylists. The original intention of adding a barber shop, top-notch restaurant and a new swimming pool at the Carrington base is to extend the player's stay rather than leave immediately after training. Amorin, who values team cohesion, urgently needs such facilities, and this summer he still needs to deal with the departure of several players including Rashford, Garnacho and Sancho.

The new training base adopts a dynamic design system on the ground floor to ensure that players enter the training ground in the reasonable order of the locker room-gym-swimming pool-physical massage area. The base also has a cutting-edge low-temperature recovery cabin and upgraded fitness equipment. Ronaldo previously pointed out that the swimming pool of the Manchester United training base has never been updated since he joined Real Madrid in 2009. The five-time Golden Globe winner refused to use it on the grounds that "there are safety risks when loose tiles are exposed." Although senior officials believed that the criticism was harsh at the time, Inex took over the club and started to make a transformation. Windows were added to the ground-floor corridor to improve lighting because employees complained that the original environment was similar to that of a dim public hospital. The second floor adopts an open office design to strengthen departmental collaboration, and the base will become the club's operation center, and executives from non-football departments such as business will be moved from Old Trafford. The £10 million women's football team and youth training shared the building in 2023 will temporarily replace the first team training function in the past year. Inex sports director Dave Brasford was deeply involved in the design and referenced NFL team facilities. When he moved from Cliff training base in 2000, Carrington was a modern complex, but in recent years it gradually declined like Manchester United on the court.

Construction workers are now in the finale and are expected to be officially put into use before the Premier League opening match against Arsenal on August 17. The Red Devils, who ranked 15th in the league last season, hit the worst record in 50 years, will look forward to the new base helping the team revival.
