Manchester United is set to earn more than £20 million from their tour schedule in Asia and the United States, according to top sources.
The club has confirmed its first-ever post-season tour in Asia. They will clash against an ASEAN All Stars team in Kuala Lumpur on 28 May and then take to the Hong Kong Stadium on 30 May. United expect to generate around £8 million from these fixtures.
In July, the Red Devils will travel to the United States for the Premier League’s Summer Series. The schedule includes competitive matches against West Ham in New Jersey, Bournemouth in Chicago, and Everton in Atlanta, with games set between 26 July and 3 August.
Combined earnings from both tours are estimated to reach nearly £23 million. This international itinerary not only boosts revenue but also expands the club’s global fan base and commercial profile.
The ambitious tours come as Manchester United face pressing profit and sustainability challenges. The club currently grapples with PSR rules that limit losses to £105 million over a rolling three-year period.
Financial pressures have forced significant cost-cutting measures at Old Trafford. Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s restructuring initiatives include staff redundancies and cuts to charity spending, aiming to reverse a net loss of £113.2 million despite a record revenue of £661.8 million in 2023–24.
Transfer market buzz intensifies as clubs eye Ipswich Town’s promising forward, Liam Delap. The 22-year-old has tallied 12 goals and 2 assists in 33 appearances this season, making him a highly sought-after talent amid fierce competition from United, Chelsea, and other top sides.
These global tours and high-stakes transfer battles underscore Manchester United’s drive to secure lucrative deals and competitive edge. For the latest updates and exclusive insights on the club’s journey, follow fotnet24.net and stay ahead of every breakthrough.
