Wiretaps found in Manchester United dressing room, reports
The English Championship is going through a new controversy. According to the newspaper The Sun, some wiretaps were found in the Manchester United dressing room, inside Villa Park, home of Aston Villa, who hosted the Red Devils last Sunday (06), in a game that ended in a 0-0 draw.
According to the English outlet, an anonymous person confirmed that he placed listening devices in the United dressing room two days before the game, with the intention of listening to coach Erik Ten Hag’s conversations with the Manchester team’s squad.

Another anonymous source reportedly told The Sun that the Manchester United incident is a major security breach in the Premier League.
“This is a shocking breach of security and some serious questions will be raised about how this happened. Thankfully there was nothing more sinister about this incident at United. They wanted to hear what was being said inside those four walls. What is clear is that it will be a cause for concern to see how they managed to sneak into the dressing room of one of the Premier League’s most important clubs just days before a match,” the source said.
Amid this controversy, Manchester United returns to the Premier League field on October 19, Saturday, when they host Brentford at Old Trafford, at 11 am (Brasília time).
