Man Utd Financial Results: Record £677.6m Revenue Confirmed
Manchester United have confirmed a new club record for revenue in their published financial results for the 2025/26 season, covering the year to the end of June. The Man Utd record revenue announcement tops the club’s newly released annual accounts.
Despite that record top line, United posted an overall net loss of £43 million for the year. That’s wider than the £33 million loss the club reported twelve months earlier. Non-current borrowings increased year-on-year, while the revolving credit facility balance stood at £110 million at the end of June.
The report doesn’t break down every cost line behind the loss. For context on the club’s wider spending picture, supporters can revisit earlier managerial payout details from earlier this year.
Omar Berrada Speaks as Manchester United Release Financials
Chief executive Omar Berrada framed the numbers as proof of the club’s underlying strength.
“We are pleased to have secured record revenues and adjusted EBITDA, which demonstrates the underlying strength of our business, particularly in a season without European football,” he said, according to the Manchester Evening News financial report.
Berrada added: “This shows the direct impact of the work we have been doing over the past two years. It also proves Manchester United’s enduring popularity and commercial strength.”
He was clear that discipline remains the priority.
“While these results confirm that we are on the right trajectory, we will continue to take a disciplined approach to ensure our finances remain sustainable,” Berrada said.
He also pointed to new commercial deals: “We have also strengthened commercially and have welcomed Betway as our new training kit partner and SumUp as our new sleeve partner; two excellent organisations which we are delighted to be working with, alongside our kit supplier, adidas and front of shirt partner, Snapdragon.”
Champions League Return and Wage Bill Reduction
The Man Utd record revenue picture was driven largely by stronger broadcasting income. That money rose after United finished third in the Premier League last season, a big improvement on the previous campaign. Commercial revenue moved the other way, falling by £16 million once the Tezos sponsorship ended and with no summer tour to boost income.
On the cost side, the total wage bill was reduced to £302 million. Berrada linked that discipline directly to on-field investment.
“With that financial sustainability in mind, we have strengthened both our men’s and women’s teams during the summer window and our men’s team has seen the return of Champions League football to Old Trafford.”
Stadium Land Secured as Next Steps Outlined
Berrada also gave an update on United’s long-term infrastructure plans, confirming that the land for the club’s proposed new stadium has now been secured.
“We have now completed the major milestone of securing the land, which will form part of the proposed location of the new stadium,” he said. That update came as part of Berrada’s update on stadium plans.
No further financial or building timeline was given beyond that milestone, but it’s a significant step for those of us who’ve followed the stadium project closely. For more from around the club this week, see the latest club talking points.
