The cause of why Manchester United is losing €2m a week

Manchester United are not at their best in terms of revenue generation, only coming off the back of a season in which they failed to qualify for the Champions League, a very particular reason why they are making a loss as an institution. The team recorded a poor season in which they failed to achieve their sporting objectives.

Losses of €132.5 million were announced for the 2021-22 season, despite an 18% increase in revenue for the institution. The biggest expense is being attributed to spending on salaries, players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Raphael Varane or Jadon Sancho, their wage bill represented a significant increase.
