Manchester United reports higher revenue but net loss of nearly £12m in first half of 2026

Nevertheless, Manchester United recorded a net loss of £11.8 million in the third quarter of its financial year, a larger deficit than the same period last year, impacted by declining sponsorship income and reduced ticket sales.

The team's qualification for the Champions League is anticipated to increase revenue in the next financial year, thanks to advantageous broadcasting agreements and fresh sponsorship contracts. In the most recent quarter, sponsorship income fell by 9.4%.

"We are very optimistic about the team's development this term and the ongoing beneficial effects of our business transformation programmes," stated chief executive Omar Berrada.
