BEHIND THE ARCHIVE / 02

Built for the
United faithful.

This independent fan site follows Manchester United’s men’s team across the five completed seasons from 2021/22 to 2025/26. The ongoing 2026/27 season is outside this archive.

This is a curated record of key senior moves and selected development signings and loans, not a complete Academy transaction register. Loan returns are excluded. A loan is not a sale; a release may show the player’s subsequent club.

Transfer fees are omitted because reported figures can differ and may include add-ons. Each season links to its source. The 2025/26 winter window also saw permanent exits for Rhys Bennett, Joe Hugill and Sam Mather: club winter round-up ↗.
