The Red Devils first signed the lucrative deal with the airline in 2013, before renewing the deal in 2017. In their nine year association with Aeroflot, Manchester United banked £100 million from the deal.

United chiefs are already looking for an alternative partner, with Qatar Airways mentioned as one possible candidate.
