Manchester United, the renowned Premier League club, is dealing with a mice infestation at Old Trafford. Hygiene inspectors recently found mice droppings during their visit, causing the club’s hygiene rating to drop to just two stars, far below the five-star ratings enjoyed by other Premier League teams. Evidence of mice was discovered in corporate suites on the ground level and in a kiosk that serves food to fans. The club has been instructed to make necessary improvements promptly. The Daily Mail reported that the infestation is attributed to Old Trafford’s location between a canal and a railway line. A club spokesperson stated that a strong pest-control system is in place at Old Trafford, with multiple weekly checks conducted in all catering areas to maintain high hygiene and cleanliness standards for food storage, preparation, and service. “If such incidents happen at the stadium, prompt and suitable action is taken.” A representative from Trafford Council stated, “After a routine visit, our environmental health officers assigned a food hygiene rating of two.” “We are currently collaborating with Manchester United to ensure it meets the rating requirements and makes the needed enhancements.” Three weeks ago, a deceased rat was found beneath a fan’s seat at Old Trafford. This occurred following reports that a United-themed cafe had to shut down because of a rat infestation. The mice problem at United is merely the most recent challenge faced by the stadium. Following the Red Devils’ loss to Bournemouth on Sunday afternoon, Ruben Amorim’s press conference was disrupted by a leaking ceiling. The dripping water from above forced at least one journalist to change their seat. In the meantime, United’s performance on the field is equally disappointing after their surprising 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth. Do they have what it takes? Forecast and Earn Millions Today.
