Manchester United declined 1, 7 per cent of main earnings for the last quarter of last year due to the huge wage bill in the club. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, and depreciation for the quarter to 31 December dropped to ? 67. 8 million from ? 69 million a year ago.
Nevertheless, the `red devils` remain profitable as revenue has increased by 3, 8 percent to 163. 9 million pounds for the second quarter of the financial year 2017/18.
