United have formed a business partnership with Essendon
Football Club in Australia.

Their chief executive officer Peter Jackson said:

"There's something really in this for Essendon, we thank the
Manchester United brand working with us, [it] will allow us
to do what we want to do in Australia, far more quickly and
far broader we think. The leverage it will give us to go out
and find our fans will be important to us.”
