Manchester United are projected to lose a staggering £80 million due to their disappointing performance in the Premier League and failure to qualify for any European competition in the upcoming season.
The Red Devils were positioned to receive a substantial £70 million reward had they secured Champions League qualification by clinching the Europa League title against Tottenham Hotspur.
However, Ruben Amorim’s squad suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat in Bilbao, courtesy of a first-half goal by Brennan Johnson, handing Tottenham the victory and extinguishing United’s European hopes.
As a result, Manchester United will not feature in any European competitions next season, compounding their financial woes.
Last season, United collected approximately £30 million from UEFA’s broadcasting rights related to their Europa League campaign. That revenue stream will be absent in the coming year.
Additionally, matchday income is expected to decline by an estimated £20 million, largely due to five fewer home games likely being held at Old Trafford.
The club is also liable to pay a £10 million penalty under their current agreement with Adidas, triggered by their inability to secure Champions League qualification for the 2025–26 season.
To further deepen the financial blow, finishing 16th in the Premier League means Manchester United will receive roughly £22.4 million less in prize and TV money compared to the previous season when they placed eighth.
