Last week, Manchester United's legendary helmsman Gershon's status as a promotional ambassador was hotly debated, a position that has stirred up a furor in the green room despite the English media revealing that marquee player Gallienville is expected to fill in the void on a part-time basis. As a promotional ambassador, he has been making frequent trips to India on promotional missions in the recent past.
According to The Sun, Gurney will be fulfilling his duties as Manchester United's ambassador on a part-time basis, having just traveled to Mohali, India to participate in a soccer school event. Behind this news, it is actually hinted that the 11-year long contract between Manchester United and Fei Sir will be terminated. The post of publicity ambassador, once successful, is expected to exceed 2 million pounds a year.
In fact, Gurney had won eight Premier League trophies for United. He had a close relationship with new owner Ratcliffe and was once a close friend. He formed a team early on to plan the new stadium. Gurney was also invited to be deeply involved in the decision-making process for United's new Olympic Stadium.
