Manchester United to bolster security at training grounds


One of the UK’s most-successful and best-known football teams has revealed plans to improve the level of security at its training ground in order to prevent any possible terror attacks, a news report has been able to suggest.

Security at Manchester United’s £60million Aon Training Complex is being increased using bollards, automatic barriers and 11ft-high steel gates.

The Premier League giants have outlined the measures in planning applications to local officials. Club bosses say of the complex, on the outskirts of Manchester: “A range of measures are proposed.

“This level of security is required due to the high profile of Manchester United and to ensure visitors are controlled and the complex remains secure.”
