"The Athletic" recently presented another strange example of frugality from the new Manchester United shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

An interesting story took place just before 

As reported by "The Athletic", B. Fernandes was surprised that not the entire team had free travel and accommodation for the FA Cup final trip.

The surprised Portuguese immediately visited the Manchester United executives' office. He offered to pay for all the additional expenses out of his own pocket.

However, such a proposal from the midfielder was rejected, claims "The Athletic".
