Fred the Red is a favourite amongst the players as well

In what looks like a cross between, Clifford the big red dog and the son of Satan, ‘Fred the Red’ is the devilishly charming mascot for Manchester United. Named after the club’s nickname, The Red Devils, Fred is one of the more popular mascots in the Premier League.

Wearing the number 55 on the back of his shirt, Fred has been entertaining the Old Trafford crowd for well over two decades now. Since his inception, Fred has been in attendance of every trophy Manchester United has lifted over the years. Although recently, wee-Fred was in a bit of a worry concerning his job at the club, but the Special one saved the day by offering him a new contract.

Rest assured, the fans can rejoice as Fred The Red is not going anywhere soon.
