Manchester United end talks with Amazon over access-all-areas documentary  | OneFootball

Manchester United have ended discussions over a record-breaking Amazon Prime documentary after manager Ruben Amorim failed to give the green light.

According to The Athletic, the Red Devils were locked in negotiations with Amazon towards the end of last campaign over an ‘All or Nothing’ series.

Amazon were willing to offer more than £10 million, but United pulled out of negotiations after concluding it could distract the team.

Amorim was reportedly uncomfortable with the potential intrusion on the first team, which contributed towards their withdrawal from talks.

Meanwhile, aspects of the commercial agreement and the time pressure of the upcoming season were contributing factors.

United’s financial troubles are well-documented, with the club’s debt standing at over £700m.

Co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe claimed in March that they were in danger of going bust by Christmas had they not taken a series of cost-cutting measures.

They recently suffered another financial blow after their partnership with Blockchain company Tezos ended, with the club unveiling their new training kit without a sponsor.

The news of Tezos’ partnership ending came shortly after it emerged that hotel chain Marriott would not extend its sponsorship deal.

Agreeing a deal with Amazon would have lightened their financial concerns, but the idea was not feasible.
