Manchester United will lose more than 20 million pounds in sponsorship income from Adidas if they fail to qualify for next year's Champions League.
The German sportswear giant is in the second season of a 10‑year 750 million pound deal.
United says the annual payment will reduce by 30% if they do not reach Europe's flagship competition for a second successive season.
United are sixth in the Premier League, six points off the top four.
Manchester United will take on Arsenal in the English Premier League at 1.30am Sunday.
