Europa League final: What's at stake for both clubs?

Manchester United need this trophy win to ensure they have financial stability going into the summer.

They have a lot of big plans. They want to sign a lot of players, including attacking players which are expensive to obtain.

Getting into the Champions League next season would certainly help that, and give them that financial firepower to go and execute the deals that they want to execute.

The club are also in the process of a redundancy scheme. It is a shame because people are losing their jobs - and no one at Manchester United wants that to happen.

To have this financial boost, an estimated £100m if they qualify for the Champions League, would be significant for them.

In terms of Tottenham, we all know about their trophy drought - 2008 was the last time they lifted a trophy. They want this so badly. The fans want this so badly.

The major issue is Ange Postecoglou's future. Whether Wednesday's outcome has any baring on his future remains to be seen. I think the direction of travel is that he will probably leave the club, regardless of the result.

The euphoria of victory could change things - but that's the jeopardy we have got here.

If Postecoglou does leave Tottenham this summer with that European trophy in his belt, that would help him get another top job in European football.
