18/12/20 - Laybuy - At-home Christmas hospitality experience

Christmas came early for Manchester United superfan, Shaun Leahy, yesterday, after he was surprised by footballing legend Andy Cole, who partnered with club partner, Laybuy to transform the key worker’s Coventry home into the grounds of Old Trafford – complete with Christmas dinner, cheering crowds and his own personal dug-out.

With this Christmas marking the first year in the club’s 142-year history that United fans will be unable to attend festive matches, Manchester United Buy Now, Pay Later partner Laybuy treated the Coventry-based club devotee to the club’s first ever at-home Christmas hospitality experience.

From the iconic Old Trafford terraces projected onto the walls of his home, to a Christmas dinner shared virtually with footballing legend Andy Cole, Shaun was treated to the VIP experience while watching the Red Devil’s match against Sheffield United on Thursday night.

The activity comes after Laybuy was announced as Manchester United’s first official Buy Now, Pay Later provider in October. Laybuy will be available in the megastore from next year, meaning fans will be able to get their hands-on new season shirts, merch and more – and spread the cost with six, weekly payments interest-free.
