[Saba Sports News] According to British media reports, Manchester United’s payroll has decreased by £10.1 million compared to the same period last year. The report states that the club’s payroll has declined by 11.2% compared to the previous year. Manchester United stated that the decrease in payroll is primarily due to changes in the first-team squad. This summer, players including Mason Greenwood, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Scott McTominay, Anthony Martial, Raphael Varane, and Donny van de Beek departed. The decline in payroll this season is also related to the team not qualifying for the Champions League, but not participating in the Champions League has also led to a decrease in the club’s broadcasting and commercial revenue. The financial report shows that the club incurred a cost of £8.6 million in restructuring, including layoffs aimed at reducing the staff from over 1,100 by about 250 employees. It is reported that Manchester United’s cost and staff reduction are still proceeding as planned, and the club is pleased to see further commercial appeal.
