Manchester United CEO Berrada: Our goal is to bring the club back to the top of European football

On September 11, Beijing time, Manchester United announced the financial report for the 23-24 season. After that, the club's CEO Omar Berrada issued a statement through the club's official website, talking about the club's current situation and expectations for the future.

Berrada said: "It has been a busy offseason for the club, and the training camps for both the men's and women's teams have been successful. This summer, we introduced five outstanding players, strengthened the strength of the men's first team, and established a new football leadership to provide better support for our coach Ten Hag."

"Dan Ashworth has been appointed as sports director and Jason Wilcox has joined us as technical director. Two experienced and highly respected professionals will add great strength to our team. We have added six players to the women's team and are continuing to invest to ensure that all our teams have access to world-class training facilities at the fully renovated Carrington."

"We are also very pleased to extend our partnership with Snapdragon. The two sides have made a good start and have extended it for another two years in addition to the initial three-year term."

“As I take on my new role as Chief Executive of this historic club, we are all laser-focused on working together to deliver a fantastic future, with footballing success at the heart of that.”

“We are working towards greater financial sustainability and transforming our operations to make them more efficient to ensure we direct resources towards improving performance on the pitch.”

“Today we are announcing our new direction for FY2025, reflecting some of the annual impact of the transformative cost savings and organisational changes we were busy implementing over the summer.”

“Ultimately, Manchester United’s strength is the passion and loyalty of our fans and our aim is to return the club to the top of European football with everyone at the club aligned around a clear strategy to deliver sustained success on and off the pitch, for the ultimate benefit of our fans, shareholders and stakeholders.”
