Man United admit pay-outs to get rid of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick cost them £24.7m... after sacking manager four months into a three-year contract - and cancelling his replacement's consultancy role

Manchester United's annual financial report shows that they spent £24.7million on getting rid of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick over the last year.

The club recorded a net loss of £115.5million for the financial year up to 30 June 2022, compared with £92.2million in 2021.

A significant chunk of their expenditure came from paying off two managers in what was their worst season in Premier League history as they achieved just 58 points.

Manchester United sacked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer four months into his new three-year contract

Solskjaer was sacked in November last year after a 4-1 defeat to Watford that left United seventh in the Premier League table after the first 12 games of the season.
