LONDON, Sept 30 (Reuters) - Manchester United
sought to play down persistent takeover
speculation surrounding the premier league
champions on Tuesday as success on and off the
pitch boosted annual profits by 22 percent.
"These are a cracking set of results, but there
are a lot of one-offs this year and they may
struggle to match them next year on a
like-for-like basis," said analyst Andrew Lee at
Dresdner Kleinwort Wasserstein
Player trading profits were 12.9 million pounds
due largely to the transfer of England captain
David Beckham to Real Madrid, but were down from
last year's profit of 17.4 million pounds as the
club took a write down on the value of Argentine
midfielder Juan Sebastian Veron before his
subsequent sale to Chelsea.
