Man United are in a position to spend big in the summer transfer window as the heavy losses recorded in recent years are now dropping out of their PSR calculations.

That is the view of finance expert Kieran Maguire, who exclusively told Football Insider that the Red Devils have had to be “cautious” in recent windows to not breach financial regulations.

After an underwhelming eighth-placed finish in the Premier League, United are expected to invest heavily in their playing squad this summer.

However, the Manchester giants have recently had their transfer budget shackled by the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules which only allow clubs to lose £105million over three years.

With a £115million loss recorded in their 2021-22 club accounts, United have had to balance their books to avoid a breach and a potential points deduction.

However, Maguire explained that the staggering £115million loss will drop out of United’s three-year PSR calculations this summer, freeing up a bigger budget this summer.

“The 2024/25 could be a bit of a reset for Manchester United,” Maguire told Football Insider’s Sean Fisher.

“The reason why the club has been so cautious in recent transfer windows, especially in the January window, is a lot to do with the large losses that the club racked up in 2021/22.

“However, such losses drop out of the three-year PSR equation this summer.

“This should give Manchester United much more wiggle room and a bigger budget to play with.

“This is combined with a new philosophy of shifting older and higher-earning players off the wage bill.“
