The Red Devils have announced that season ticket prices will rise by 5% for the 2025-26 in a move which has not gone down well with supporters. The Manchester United Supporters Trust has also now spoken out about the club's decision and insisted prices should have been frozen instead of hiked up yet again by the Red Devils.

A statement read: "For several months we have argued long and hard that the club needs to look at the big picture and freeze ticket prices for next season. Other clubs have done that already and at United it would have sent a powerful message about the need for everyone to pull together to get the club out of the very difficult position it finds itself in.”

Raising season ticket prices is the latest unpopular move by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS and follows several rounds of redundancies as the co-owner aims to cut costs and boost the club's finances. While United have been busy putting prices up, fans will be well aware that Premier League rivals such as Liverpool and Tottenham have frozen season ticket prices for next season.
