Manchester United finance chief takes swipe at UEFA over Champions League money

Manchester United's finance chief Cliff Baty has taken a swipe at UEFA over the distribution of Champions League money.

Currently, between 2021 and 2024, £2.95bn will be generated by the European leagues through broadcast revenue. A sizeable £2.3bn of this income will be shared out among the 96 participating clubs, leaving just £143.7m to be shared with 750 non-participating teams.

This split has concerned Baty despite United failing to qualify for next season's Champions League following a dismal season. United finished sixth in the Premier League and following a round of 16 exit to Atletico Madrid, Erik ten Hag's side will have to settle for Europa League football in 2022/23.
