The Rugby Football Union's recent restructure will see over 40 staff redundancies despite securing a lucrative naming rights deal, reflecting financial challenges.
With 64 roles at risk across all departments, the RFU's chief executive stresses the necessity of restructuring to manage growing financial pressures.
Factors such as inflation, declining broadcast revenues, and rising operating costs have contributed to the RFU's decision to pursue significant layoffs.
The RFU's last financial report highlighted a loss of 6.3m for the year ending June 2023, pushing the union towards difficult but necessary restructuring.
