Manchester United Continues to Struggle with Financial Losses for Fifth Consecutive Year

In the 2023/24 season, Manchester United finished in eighth place in the Premier League, their lowest finish since 1990. Additionally, they were eliminated at the group stage of the Champions League.

But Erik Ten Hag's men won the FA Cup -- beating Manchester City in the final at Wembley for a second trophy in two years.

United have embarked on a major backroom shake-up in recent months, including bringing in a new chief executive, Omar Berrada, poached from Premier League champions Manchester City.

"As I embark on my new role as chief executive officer of this historic club, we are all extremely focused on working collectively to create a bright future with football success at the heart of it," said Berrada.

"We are working towards greater financial sustainability and making changes to our operations to make them more efficient, to ensure we are directing our resources to enhancing on-pitch performance."

The Premier League's profitability and sustainability rules allow a maximum loss of £105 million over a three-season period, but within that certain losses are deemed "allowable" such as infrastructure, youth team and women's team spending.
