Manchester United has begun selling pieces of the Old Trafford pitch for £125 each, marking a unique initiative amid the club's financial challenges. The first batch has already sold out, with the move coming on the heels of the club's revelation that its overall debt remains above £1bn. Despite recording a record revenue of £677.6m and an operating profit of £22.6m for the 2025-26 financial year, Manchester United also reported a pre-tax loss of £43m.
The club spent £63.5m on land acquisition for their proposed new stadium, which is expected to cost more than £2bn. In a first in 14 years, the Old Trafford pitch was recently dug up and the turf was preserved, cut into 7x7cm pieces, and placed inside glass cubes. The club claims these cubes offer a "priceless memento" of iconic games played at Old Trafford, allowing supporters to keep memories of matchdays alive.
