Manchester United have confirmed that for the first time in six years, a dividend made payable to the Glazer family has not been paid.
In the club's first-quarter fiscal results, United note that the board of directors did not approve the payment of the semi-annual dividend for 2023.
The much maligned American owners - who have recently put the Premier League giants up for sale - have often been criticised for taking money out of the club, with the annual dividend payment a repeated bone of contention. The naked figures do make pleasant reading for the Glazers however, with United's total revenue increasing by £20million from £590m to £610m - a 13 per cent rise from the last figures.
