Manchester United are currently at risk of losing £37million in commercial revenue, sources have told Football Insider.
Ruben Amorim’s side endured a disappointing campaign after missing out on European football following their 15th-place finish in the Premier League and Europa League final defeat.
Man United agreed a new 10-year sponsorship deal with Adidas worth £900million over the lifetime of the contract.
However, under the terms of the agreement, United will be deducted £10million by the German manufacturer each time they miss out on Champions League qualification, including their latest failure.
Meanwhile, Marriott International – the world’s largest hotel company – has now decided not to extend its sponsorship deal with the club after it expired at the end of the 2024-25 campaign.
Finance expert Stefan Borson told Football Insider Marriott’s deal is likely to have been worth £7million a year.
