Amazon announce plans for a new Manchester United documentary series that will air in 2024

Amazon Prime Video has revealed they are working on a new documentary series about Manchester United’s treble-winning 1999 season.

The broadcaster has already worked with Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester City on their groundbreaking All or Nothing series. They have also been behind the scenes with Borussia Dortmund and the All Black rugby team.

Now they have been given access to cover the history of Manchester United’s most successful season ever. However, the show will not air until 2024, as Amazon aims to release the series on the 25th anniversary of the treble-winning season.

There are few details about how the series will work, with Amazon making the announcement on Thursday. But it’s likely the documentary will follow a similar format to other clubs they’ve worked with.

United won the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup titles in 99 minutes, becoming the first and currently only England team to ever do so.

The series could feature former stars like David Beckham (centre) and iconic manager Sir Alex Ferguson (right).

Moments such as their iconic last-minute comeback victory over Bayern Munich in the European Cup semi-finals, Ryan Giggs’ wonder goal against Arsenal in the Cup and their one-point win over the Gunners for the league title will all be focused on.

Interviews with title-winning manager Sir Alex Ferguson and some of the club’s treble-winning sides such as David Beckham, Gary Neville and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could also be involved.

Manchester United have made no official statement about the new series, suggesting that none of the club’s current crop of stars will be featured or behind-the-scenes footage from the dressing room.

The show will air in 2024, but no information has been released on a specific date or how many episodes will be included in the series.

The documentary could ultimately pave the way for greater access to United, with Amazon and Netflix previously rumored to be battling for a fly-on-the-wall movie deal with the Premier League giants.

Former Man United player Paul Pogba irked his old club when he signed a deal with Amazon for a series about his tumultuous past season at Old Trafford and his reasons for leaving.

Arch-rival Manchester City could have become the second team to achieve triple success by the time the show hits television, with Pep Guardiola’s side already securing the Premier League title and in the finals of the FA Cup and Champions League.

Man United have a golden opportunity to deprive City of that chance when they meet at Wembley in the final on Saturday 3 June.
