Can't remember the exact figures but it is down to something like 15% of our income now where as before it was 75%.
 
The BBC suggest in today's article about this that Utd still owe £400m in debt repayments (but then Ive seen articles saying the Chevy deal is worth anything between £42m and £55m/season lol ) which seems a little high from what I remember reading in the last financial reports (thought it was more like £350m~) . Turnover last seaosn was £400m or there abouts.

From next summer Utd could easily buy a decent player from the shirt sponsorship, and one from the kit deal and still pay off £70-80m straight away every year (even without considering other sponsorships / EPL payments etc etc)

Real Madrid were more valuable in the last round of negotiations/for the current crop of deals. It'll be the case for the next round of deals, given there's been no huge change in terms of Real being weaker than Manyoo, or whatever.

And they're on a par in terms of the value of their current deals. As evidenced by the image I posted.

Didn't Madrid sign their last deal around 2 years ago? it's due to run until 2020.
 
I've read that Utd's debt is down to £20m pa and will drop to £12m when half the bond is refinanced next year.

Then take:

£53M a year from Chevrolet
£75m a year from Adidas
£20m a year from AON training ground name rights

Then other various income, Utd could be looking at income of c. £500m pa.

Compare that to a few years ago when Utd were paying £70m pa interest with an income of £200m.

I'll give Woodward some credit. He knows how to financially exploit the fact they're the biggest team in the world.

Will be a couple of exciting years and ffp will really be a non issue.

Yes Ive just seen that 15% figure too

I also understand that the whole debt is down to ~£317m, so as of next summer the shirt alone is making £125m for at least 6 years ( the remaining length of the Chevy deal) - meaning that the debt is effectively meaningless.

( althoufh of course its still cost a fortune in the past).

There is also a theory wirh that % of debt is a benefit to the club / at the very least no hindrance ( although I havent seen a full explanation of this)

We should have been in a 15mil a year shirt only deal that improved every year, maybe being worth 20-25mil by the time it ended. We gave away a huge amount of money signing that deal. Probably should have gotten 50mil for the stadium naming alone. Probably lost out on 150+ million in the past 10 years at least. Our kit deals have also been comparatively awful compared to the teams around us.

It's a joke because when signed we were getting to late stages in the CL, winning titles and were a genuinely top team.

Arsenal's deal with Puma is still an amazing deal. Your figures are all wrong and makes it look bad.
It's £30m a year for 5yrs. The only one larger than that (prior today was Real Madrid). You can't compare Real Madrid and United because of global scale, Arsenal just aren't recognized as much.
United prior to this was 23m a year, Liverpool are 25m a year etc.

i think he is talking about the old deal not the new puma one.

Which is pretty reasonable, given they have the same end date/represent what the value is at the moment.

No, Liverpool's started just as Utd's is finishing

Still doesnt signify that Utd got theirs signed amd delivered a decade before Liverpool agreed theirs ( or in otherwords why not compare what Liverpool were getting in 2003)

There have beem a few articles suggesting Liverpool have the 6 th best commercial operation in World football, its fair to say Utd is No1 with both ( long term) kit and sponsorship deals leading the way by a healthy margin
