Manchester United’s financial blow revealed after early exit from Europe

Manchester United could face a £40m hit to their income this season because they will play far fewer matches at Old Trafford after their early exits from Europe and the Carabao Cup.

United played a club record 33 home games in all competitions last season, bringing in their biggest ever matchday revenue of £136.4m – an average of more than £4m per match.

But this season United could play as few as 23 times at Old Trafford, depending on whether Erik ten Hag’s team, who are away at Wigan in the third round, get any home FA Cup ties, and will have a maximum of 26 matches at their own ground.
