FA Cup Exit Sends Manchester United Towards...Cristiano

Manchester United is considering organizing a friendly match in Saudi Arabia to address the financial problems arising from their FA Cup exit. The elimination from the FA Cup and League Cup, combined with a reduced run in European competitions, means the team will have less revenue from matches compared to last season. A friendly in Saudi Arabia could generate around 10 million pounds. The team already has a gap in its schedule in February and March, which could be filled with this game. Talks have been held with the President of the General Entertainment Authority of Saudi Arabia regarding a possible visit.
