Sun: Manchester United considers playing friendly matches abroad in the middle of the week to make up for the loss of hundreds of millions of pounds without European matches

September 12th According to the exclusive report of the Sun, Manchester United may use the mid-week time of the season to hold a friendly match abroad to make up for the losses of hundreds of millions of pounds that did not participate in the European game.

Manchester United has no European mission this season, and it is shockingly eliminated by the English League Two team in the League Cup, which means that Manchester United only has one mid-week game before Christmas. According to the Sun, Manchester United may use the mid-week time to compete with other top teams.

In addition to three international match days, Manchester United may have a maximum interval of 8 days between the two Premier League rounds, and semi-competitive friendly matches will help the team prepare better. Manchester United may face teams such as AC Manchester United, RB Leipzig, Lazio, Sevilla, etc. that are also not qualified for European competition.

If Manchester United plays with these teams in places such as the UAE, they can also earn additional income, although this is only a drop in the bucket compared to the European game, they can also make up for their losses to a large extent.

Manchester United earned about 7.8 million pounds in their Asian tour after last season, and the revenue from their trip to the United States in July was about this number. If Manchester United and Milan play such commercial matches, they can share their income equally, and play against Leipzig or Lazio, and Manchester United can also get a larger share.

Previously, the Sun revealed that Amorin was considering leading the players to conduct overseas training camps in the middle of the week, which he believed could enhance the connection between players.

Although the final decision has not been made, there is a view that letting players change their environment instead of training at the Carrington base every day will help motivate the team. Any travel abroad by Manchester United can get the same benefits as Arsenal went to Dubai for training in February.
