Ahead of Christmas, Manchester United had planned a party for the players and staff, but ultimately decided to cancel it. Bruno Fernandes was the most surprised by this decision, as he was willing to cover the event's costs out of his own pocket.
Details: According to The Athletic, the club's CEO, Omar Berrada, announced the decision during a staff meeting. The cancellation of the party caused discontent among the club's employees and became a topic of discussion.
Captain Bruno Fernandes, shocked by the management's decision, offered to cover all additional costs to ensure the party would still take place. However, his proposal was rejected.

Addendum: The cancellation saved the club about £250,000. Nevertheless, the management explained that the decision was not financially motivated but rather out of respect for those who had recently lost their jobs, believing it would be inappropriate to celebrate in such circumstances.
