and have claimed that “the company recorded an operating profit £0.7m in the quarter compared to an operating loss of £66.2m in the third quarter of 2024.

What’s more, “total revenues increased 17.4% in the quarter with increases across all three key revenue streams, driven by additional matches played in the quarter as a result of strong performance in the UEFA Europa League and high demand for the club’s hospitality offering.”

Commercial revenue has seen an increase of 7.3% in the third quarter last year from £69.6 million to £74.7 million.

Moreover, broadcasting revenue has grown from £37.5 million to £41.3 million, which accounts for a 10.1% growth.

analysed that the club could actually break even this year if the current course is continued.

It is claimed that fourth quarter projections could grow in broadcast, commercial and matchday revenue.

, the cash reserves have fallen to £73.2 million.

Therefore, player sales will still be essential in spite of the improving financial situation. The Muppetiers predict that the Red Devils can perhaps spend £200 million net with no issues in the transfer window but without sales, this could put the club on the precipice for next summer.

It was also reiterated that cash flow remains the biggest problem, therefore the structuring of deals over instalments is probably a greater sticking point in negotiations than overall price.

All in all, United fans will hope that after months of bad press over their new owners, that finally, the club has something to be cautiously optimistic about over its financial future.
