What exactly are their financial issues?
- 1 billion in debt and growing
- over 1m a week being paid to players on loan at other clubs (Rashford, Anthony, Sancho). United can't sell them because no top clubs want them and tier 2 clubs won't pay their wage demands. Each one of these players is going to stay put, and milk that contract until it's last days (see Jesse Lingard - 100k a week from from April 2017 - June 2022)
- Stadium falling to bits and need 3b investment for a new one (quoted at 2b but we all know the end cost is usually 25%-50% more)
- No European football which is significant loss of both TV and matchday revenue
- Did you watch their team last night? They are so far off from being a top half club let alone a top four club so serious investment needed
- Will cost them 20m plus to sack the Gucci Graham Potter and another 10m - 20m to buy out the contract of the next manager they poach.
- Only staff left to lay off is Doris in the tea room... which will generate a saving of £10.50 per hour once her redundancy of £11k is paid
