Manchester United are suing the creators of the Football Manager video game series due to the popular franchise allegedly infringing its trademark by using the club's name.
United claimed that their name features 'extensively throughout the game', and have taken legal action against Sega Publishing and developer Sports Interactive.
The club have also argued that both companies infringed its trademark over its logo, due to the simulation not using the official United crest. The logo has instead been replaced by 'a simplified red and white striped' design.
United believe that this depiction 'deprives the registered proprietor of its right to have the club crest licensed'.
