Eric is not the guy you want to tick off.
Now that he has his latest movie promoted and red-carpeted, the former Manchester United forward has set his sights on New York Cosmos and a bundle of unpaid wages he claims they owe him.
According to New York Daily News, Cantona is seeking almost $1 million from the US club.
The Frenchman was hired as Cosmos’ director of football in 2011 but was fired after an altercation with a photographer.
A statement from Cosmos reads: ‘Following his arrest in March 2014, the NY Cosmos terminated Mr Cantona’s contract. We have not yet received the complaint so we have no further comment at this time.’
The exact amount ‘Le King’ is looking to be paid is $961,290.
