From the source

This might upset a few Manchester United supporters, but I’m going to say it anyway. The Glazers aren’t selling Manchester United, and no amount of protesting or demanding change is likely to convince them otherwise.

According to Sky Sports, Manchester United generated a club-record £677.6 million in revenue in 2026, up from £666.5 million in 2025, despite not playing a single match in European competition.

Operating results improved from an £18.4 million loss to a £22.6 million profit, although the club still recorded a £43 million pre-tax loss. United can disappoint supporters, miss out on European football, and still break revenue records.
