social media ban on Man Utd players
Manchester United ban players posting on social media from inside changing rooms after Ander Herrera receives warning
Jose Mourinho has enforced a social media ban on his Manchester United players in a bid to limit the extent of information leaking out of the first-team squad.
Various United stars have hit the headlines for posts made on their various social media accounts this season, perhaps most notably when Paul Pogba and Jesse Lingard came under fire from ex-United defender Rio Ferdinand for performing a dance routine in the dressing room at the club’s Carrington training site and sharing it on Instagram.
But Mourinho has grown increasingly frustrated with the tendency of his players to turn to social media, particularly when recovering from high-profile injuries.
Luke Shaw drew his manager’s ire in the autumn when posting a photograph of him training away from the club as he looked to make a comeback from a leg injury, and Chris Smalling was recently shared a video of himself running under reduced weight in a hydrotherapy pool as he looks to return after a knee injured picked up when training with England in March.
