Manchester United have dropped their commercial partnership with Russian state airline Aeroflot following the invasion of Ukraine.
The UK government has banned Aeroflot from flying in its airspace and Civil Aviation Authority had suspended its foreign carrier permit.
A Manchester United spokesperson said: "In light of events in Ukraine, we have withdrawn Aeroflot's sponsorship rights."
"We share the concerns of our fans around the world and extend our sympathies to those affected."
Aeroflot has been United's official carrier since 2013, and they regularly fly to European games using the airline.
United did not use Aeroflot for their game at Atletico Madrid on Tuesday. They changed their plans and used charter airline Titan Airways.
