English Premier League · 07:50:27 - Wednesday, 11 November 2026

Manchester United, one of England's most successful football clubs, has experienced relegation from the top flight on several occasions throughout its history.

The club's most recent relegation came in the 1973-74 season, when they finished 21st in the First Division and dropped to the Second Division. They secured immediate promotion the following season.

Earlier relegations occurred in 1921-22, 1930-31, and 1936-37. Since the formation of the Premier League in 1992, United have never been relegated, winning a record 13 league titles under Sir Alex Ferguson and maintaining their top-flight status continuously.
