http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749’s most successful club revealed that their fan base is growing around the world according to latest surveys and reports despite their lack of silverware in the recently concluded football season...
Manchester United released latest figures on Tuesday confirming that their support across the globe amongst football watchers has doubled across the last half a decade as the Red Devils dominate the global market in competition
with the likes of Real Madrid, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/America-c38390 and Africa.
Such a vast spread of support is a source of financial revenue for Manchester United who have marketing behemoths to say the least when it comes to dominating the global football market. The cult figure of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ronaldo-c31734 propelled Manchester
United forwards in the latter stages of the first decade of this century and now fans associate themselves with the legacy of Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson as well as the club in general due to the Munich air disaster.
The 19 times champions of England have failed to compete with Manchester City in the past two to three seasons as far as transfer window activity is seen but they still remain as strong as ever in the Premier League. Latest figures
show that 10 percent of the global population now supports Manchester United as Richard Arnold, the club’s commercial director revealed.
He said, "Our family of followers has doubled in five years and across the world this represents a very, very important asset and relationship for the club. It is one of the huge myths that fans are fickle."
He added, "Research by Barclays globally showed that 85% never change the team they support - think of that in terms of the divorce rate. It changes less often than who you are married to. If you have been to China or New York
and seen the Beatles effect at airports and hotels then it becomes very easy to appreciate the way people feel."
Such a vast base of supporters gives Manchester United a financial ground to draw consistently from when it comes to sale of merchandise and shirts in Nike outlets across the world and this support is increasing day by day especially
in countries such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/China-c8926.
