League One strugglers Rotherham United have reported a pre-tax loss of £4.65m for the 2024-25 season.

The Millers were relegated from the Championship in April 2024, going on to finish bottom of the table.

That summer, they sold several players, including goalkeeper Viktor Johansson to Stoke City and midfielder Oliver Rathbone to Wrexham, to bring in much-needed revenue.

The Millers failed to return to the second tier at the first time of asking last season, finishing 13th in League One.

This season has brought further problems and, following the sacking of head coach Matt Hamshaw earlier this month, Rotherham sit 22nd and six points adrift of safety with eight matches remaining.

In a statement posted on their club website, Rotherham wrote: "Following our relegation from the Championship at the end of the 2023-24 campaign, the club has faced various challenges, the headline of which has undoubtedly been its turnover being reduced to £10.5m – a figure that stood at £19.2m in 2024.

"Despite the necessary adjustments being made to ensure a competitive first-team playing budget for the 2024-25 campaign, the club reported a loss before tax of £4.65m as we adapted to operating at League One level and the revenue streams associated with it."
