Manchester United on Wednesday posted net losses of 113.2 million pound ($148 million) for 2023/24 despite earning record revenues -- their fifth straight year of losses.

United finished eighth in the Premier League in the 2023/24 season -- their lowest finish since 1990 -- and exited at the group stage of the Champions League.
But Erik Ten Hag's men won the FA Cup -- beating Manchester City in the final at Wembley for a second trophy in two years.
United have embarked on a major backroom shake-up in recent months, including bringing in a new chief executive, Omar Berrada, poached from Premier League champions Manchester City.
"As I embark on my new role as chief executive officer of this historic club, we are all extremely focused on working collectively to create a bright future with football success at the heart of it," said Berrada.
"We are working towards greater financial sustainability and making changes to our operations to make them more efficient, to ensure we are directing our resources to enhancing on-pitch performance."
