Manchester United stand to lose out on significant sponsorship revenue from Adidas should they fail to qualify for the UEFA Champions League this season, according to a report in the Manchester Evening News (MEN).

According to the Manchester daily, there is a clause in Adidas’ contract with United that states that if the club fail to secure a place in European club soccer’s elite tournament for two consecutive seasons the sportswear brand reduces its payment by 30 per cent.

United’s deal with Adidas was signed back in 2015 and brings in £75 million ($91.9 million) per season. A 30 per cent reduction on that figure would be £55.2 million ($68.4 million). Whilst still a substantial amount, that would drop the club behind Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea in terms of annual revenue from their kit deal.
