Man United are allowing 'Amazon cameras where they've never been before' - expert

· Yahoo Sports

Manchester United have taken a risk by agreeing to let Amazon Prime document behind-the-scenes footage during the 2026-27 campaign.

That is according to former Manchester City financial adviser Stefan Borson, who exclusively told Football Insider that the All or Nothing series could backfire at Old Trafford.

It is understood that the new deal is likely to earn the Red Devils an eight-figure pay-out, following in the footsteps of Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur.

However, it will mean that supporters will have unfiltered access to never-before-seen controversy and incidents, which could spook some of the players, manager, or even those higher up.

The Red Devils will have Premier League, domestic cups and Champions League to contend with, getting back into Europe's top competition for the second time in four seasons.

This is all thanks to the team's success under Michael Carrick in the second-half of the 2025-26 season, so it will be interesting to get a look behind the curtains.

Man United's deal with Amazon could go completely wrong

Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, Borson believes the money earned will be a positive, but the general feeling will depend on the outcome of the season.

"It's probably worth £10million-£15m, and obviously, it's a pretty high-margin asset sale. There's not a lot of cost there," he said.

"You're giving up, in terms of the cost, is the access, and it's allowing cameras in places where you haven't let them be before, recording stuff and losing editorial control.

"So look, if it's a good season, then it's great. If it's a very bad season, with managerial issues and individual player issues, you enjoy the money, but you know that you're going to take some impact from it on the other side.

"It's worked fine for [Manchester] City, and it worked fine for Arsenal. I'm sure it'll be fine, but there is some risk."

The Red Devils are yet to begin their summer transfer business, with no incomings or outgoings sanctioned from the senior squad.

Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia and Jadon Sancho, have all become free agents, however, so there are spots being made available ahead of next season.

The likes of Marcus Rashford, Manuel Ugarte and Joshua Zirkzee are all expected to leave too, especially the former, despite Barcelona not triggering the buy option in his contract.

Carrick has plenty of work to do before his squad is good enough to challenge in the Premier League and Champions League, but there are some very positive signs.

It will be interesting to see if that confidence translates through the screen when the Amazon documentary airs.
