Manchester United Limited is one if not the leading financial football club in the world. Alex Ferguson is the manager of Manchester United Limited and is key to the success both on and off the pitch. With roughly 500 employees it’s a large company that generates just over 300 million USD in revenue.
Here are some little facts I got from Google Finance:
• Man U was formed in 1878 under the name Newton Heath; it changed its name in 1902.
• Malcolm Glazer owns more than 90% of the team (as if you didn’t know).
The 2005/2006 season was a successful transition season for Manchester United Limited. Chelsea must be hoping for a repeat season with their success but Manchester United Limited and the Glazers need to win something this year to firmly establish Manchester United Limited as a force on the football field as well as financially.
