Insurance giant AIG will not renew its shirt sponsorship of Manchester United.

The American company also said in an email sent to Reuters that it was “in active discussions” with the club regarding the current four-year $100 million deal, which runs until next May.

Owen Wyatt is joined by football consultant Alex Fynn to discuss the implications of AIG’s decision. How worried should football be about sponsorship problems and the credit crunch?

Alex makes an interesting point when he says that Man U could easily secure an alcohol sponsor immediately.

I can’t imagine they’ll have any trouble in getting a shirt sponsor, but what if it proves tricky? Is a Man U team strip with BUDWEISER emblazoned across it inconceivable?
