Jason
Ferguson is masterminding father Sir Alex’s hugely lucrative
post-management options nine years after the Manchester United board
pledged never to do business again with his football agency.
Jason’s
disbanded Elite Sport ceased to act on United transfers following an
internal inquiry into the 99 questions posed by United’s then major
shareholders, John Magnier and JP McManus, which put Sir Alex’s transfer
dealings under unprecedented scrutiny.
But the wheel has turned to the extent that Fergie’s reported £2million-a-year United ambassador deal was negotiated by Jason.
The
contract is for 20 appearances per year that value Sir Alex’s time at a
whopping £100,000 a day.And that day rate is what Fergie, whose
retirement was front-page news in the Financial Times, could expect to
earn on the business management speaking circuit around the world.
Certainly
United understand Fergie’s immense value as a global figure in terms of
their ever-expanding commercial operation.Jason is also handling his
father’s dealings with publisher Hodder & Stoughton for his second
autobiography, to be published in October, for which an advance of
around £2m was agreed three years ago.
