For United, the transactions document showed that payments were made for the incoming transfers of Matheus Cunha, Diego Leon, Bryan Mbeumo, Senne Lammens and Benjamin Sesko.
The appointment of Michael Carrick as interim manager also appears on the document. As well as Carrick there are transactions for his assistants Jonathan Woodgate and Steve Holland.
Former midfielder Christian Eriksen also appears on the document, marked as a ‘contract amendment.’ The Dane left United in the summer at the end of his contract.
United also made payments for deals that saw Marcus Rashford, Andre Onana and Rasmus Hojlund leave the club on loan.
It comes after United’s financial results released in February showed a £32.6 million operating profit for the first six months of the fiscal year. A turnaround compared to the £3.9 million loss 12 months earlier.
For City, the signings of Rayan Ait-Nouri, Marcus Bettinelli, Rayan Cherki, Sverre Nypan, Gianluigi Donarumma, James Trafford, Antoine Semenyo and Marc Guehi are included on the transaction document. As are the transfers away from the club for Manuel Akanji and Ilkay Gundogan.
Updated contracts for Rico Lewis, Nico O’Reilly and Ruben Dias are also included. Back in December, City reported a loss of £9.9 million in the 2024/25 season in their financial accounts.
