Gill believes wage inflation is the biggest medium-term problem that United are likely to face.
“It is highly unlikely that we would want to go to those levels,” said Gill.
“We don’t think it’s necessary because we are looking to the medium and long term.
“United has been around since 1878 and our job is to make sure it is still around for many more years in a sensible fashion.
“That is by generating our own income. There will be ups and downs but, overall, we think that what we are doing is having a sustainable business model for the long-term.”
Gill also commented on the massive spending of Real Madrid this summer.
“I don’t understand the economics of what Real Madrid are doing,” said Gill.
“Their turnover is not materially different to ours so I am not quite sure how they can make the profits to justify the salaries.
“It’s none of my business I suppose but I don’t think they can.”
