Manchester United

Who support united in their campaign for glory?

As shown in the previous section, Manchester United clearly make it as one of the biggest clubs in the world. Making lots of money and their values in shares constantly going on the rise, a smart move to make would to invest into their campaign. With numerous sponsors around the world, Manchester United are set in their advertising. Currently making money of big companies like Nike and Chevolet, the brands that invest get the right to have their logo on the manchester United shirt. These deals are worth millions of pounds.

Manchester United, in late 2012, signed a shirt sponsorship deal with Chevolet. Rumored to be around £357 million, Manchester United was able to use most of money made to lower the debt. This deal starts in 2014 and earns them a total of £51 million per year. This exceeds Barcelona's deal of £39.1 million per year. This money is likely to go towards the transfer funds so United may be able to buy new players.
