Manchester United revealed record revenues of nearly £650 million for the last season. Despite this financial success, the club’s debt remains at £538 million. The Glazer family, who have long been a source of controversy among United fans, did not take a dividend from the club during the 2022-23 season. The wage bill decreased by £52.8 million to £331.4 million.
While commercial revenues exceeded £300 million for the first time, the club still reported a £42.1 million loss for the 2022-23 season. United had a mixed season, with Erik ten Hag taking over as manager. They returned to the Champions League, finished third in the Premier League, and secured the Carabao Cup – the club’s first silverware since 2017.
Despite the financial stability, uncertainty looms over the club’s ownership. Negotiations continue between United and Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who aims to purchase a 25% stake in the club for about £1.4 billion. In addition, controversies and challenges, such as the Greenwood saga and the public dispute between Ten Hag and Sancho, have marred the season, leaving United with important decisions to make.
The future of Manchester United’s ownership remains a hot topic among fans and stakeholders.
