The English Premier League club, whose future ownership remains uncertain as the Glazer family explore a potential sale, did not give any update on that process, which started nearly a year ago. Manchester United expect revenue of between 650 million and 680 million pounds for the fiscal year to June 2024, compared with 648.4 million in 2022/23. The club forecast adjusted core profit of between 140 million and 165 million pounds, compared with 155 million in 2022/23. For the quarter ended June 30, Manchester United reported a net loss of nearly 3 million pounds ($3.50 million), compared with a loss of 71 million pounds a year earlier.

Ineos Chair Jim Ratcliffe would pay over $1.5 billion for the stake in Manchester United if his bid for the soccer club is accepted by the Glazer family that controls it, Reuters reported on Sunday, citing a person familiar with the matter. "Investors are clearly reacting with disappointment to expectations the Qatar deal for Manchester United will not go through," said Susannah Streeter, head of money and markets at Hargreaves Lansdown. "Expectations for a flood of fresh funding into Man U's coffers for a new stadium and new players are being revised." Jassim informed the Glazer family a few days ago that he will not raise his bid of more than $6 billion for Manchester United, which had a market capitalization of $3.26 billion as of Friday's close.

The move leaves the remaining bidder for Manchester United, Ineos chairman Jim Ratcliffe, in a stronger position. The exact value that Ratcliffe's bid infers on Manchester United could not be learned, but the sources said it was higher than Jassim's offer of more than $6 billion. Manchester United is currently valued by the stock market at $3.3 billion. Representatives for Jassim declined to comment while Manchester United and Ratcliffe representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

That is slightly higher than a rival offer from Qatar's Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al Thani for $100% of the Premier League club. Manchester United is currently valued by the stock market at $3.3 billion. Sheikh Jassim informed the Glazer family in the last few days that he would not be raising his bid further. Ratcliffe has offered to be in charge of hiring and managing talent at Manchester United should his bid prevail, the source said.

Manchester United, whose U.S. owners have been considering selling the Premier League club, will return to the lucrative UEFA Champions League this year after securing a top-four finish in the domestic league last season under manager Erik ten Hag. "The new deal increases the focus on the Manchester United women's team since their reintroduction in 2018," United said in a joint press release with Adidas. The new deal with Adidas, ahead of the 2023/24 Premier League season starting next month, will continue the partnership until June 2035, the northwest England-based club said. The original agreement with Adidas links a part of the yearly payments to the club's participation in the Champions League, according to the company's latest annual report.
