Manchester United’s transfer ambitions for the summer are under threat as financial uncertainty clouds the club’s future plans.
With recruitment expected to be shaped by both sales and success on the pitch, Ruben Amorim’s side enter Thursday’s quarter-final second leg against Lyon knowing the result could define their entire transfer strategy.
The first leg in France ended all square in what was a fascinating clash that ended 2-2.
Two mistakes from Andre Onana saw him dropped from the Newcastle clash.
Fans will be hoping the team can regroup and progress through to the Semi-Finals without a repeat of silly individual mistakes.
United return to Old Trafford needing to produce their biggest performance of the season so far if they want to keep their European dreams alive.
Manchester United could receive hefty Champions League revenue
If they do – and go on to win the Europa League – Champions League qualification would generate up to £100 million in extra income, according to Chris Wheeler’s report for Daily Mail.
That financial boost could be the difference between affording priority transfer targets.
Or facing another year of tight restrictions in the market.
United are also expected to raise funds through player sales.
However, questions remain over how much they will bank.
The futures of homegrown stars Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo are still unresolved heading into the summer.

Although, although United would only make a £20 million profit after settling a portion of his £315,000-a-week wages.
There’s also uncertainty over Antony.
Real Betis are set to attempt another loan extension amid his form.
As well as Jadon Sancho, who Chelsea could send back to United by triggering a £5 million penalty clause.
But with so many moving parts, Champions League qualification remains the clearest path to securing the transfer funds needed to reshape Amorim’s squad.
