This is despite an increase in "employee benefit" and operating expenses, which the club said is due to "player salary uplifts due to participation in the UEFA Champions League", as well as the increased number of total fixtures. United earned £17.3m in the "disposal of intangible assets", which is believed to comprise the fee paid by Real Sociedad for Adnan Januzaj and reported sell-on clause payments for the transfers of academy graduates Michael Keane to Everton and Danny Drinkwater to Chelsea. Net debt also decreased by £69.6m to £268.1m, despite them spending close to £145m on Romelu Lukaku, Nemanja Matic and Victor Lindelof in the transfer window.Executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward said: "We are just over a quarter of the way through what promises to be another exciting season. "In the Champions League, we have won all four games played to date; we are through to the quarter-final of the Carabao Cup [EFL Cup]; and are looking forward to the next few months as the number of matches ramps up."</blockquote>
