The Red Devils Report Historic Earnings Despite Disappointing On-Field Performance
Manchester United achieved a record income total of £666.5m during the last financial period notwithstanding the squad's disappointing on-pitch results
United finished the last Premier League term in 15th place, constituting their worst league finish since the 1973/74 demotion campaign
Nevertheless, the introduction of their multi-year front-of-shirt deal with Snapdragon allowed them to post unprecedented sponsorship earnings of £333.3m, while ticket sales also reached an all-time high at £160.3m for the year to 30 June 2025
"Having achieved record revenues amid such a challenging season at Old Trafford shows the strength which is a trademark of Manchester United," stated top official Omar Berrada
"With the start of the new term, we are striving to enhance the club in every department"
Berrada avoided referencing United's poor start to the current campaign but stated that the club is laying foundations "for the long term"
A total shortfall of £33m indicates a significant decrease relative to the previous year, when the amount reached £113.2m
United stated that they "fully support while following both Premier League's spending guidelines as well as continental financial compliance policies"
Earlier this year, industry experts placed Manchester United as having the fourth highest income in world football, according to the team's earnings of £651m in the previous year
Real Madrid (£883m) held first place, with City (£708m) as well as Paris St-Germain (£681m)
