Manchester United have announced that the company's Board of Directors are exploring strategic alternatives as they look to enhance the club's growth, one of which is a potential sale of the club. The news comes just a matter of weeks after it was announced that Fenway Sports Group (FSG) are open to selling Liverpool.
United fans have welcomed the announcement. Whilst supporters are fed up with the club still having to pay out huge sums of money from their own coffers on debt repayments - as opposed to the Glazer's investing their own money into the club - they're also frustrated by how distant the owners have been over the past 17 years.
Liverpool supporters have similarly been annoyed with the lack of investment in recent years, but because Jurgen Klopp has done such a good job on Merseyside for most of the past decade, protests have been kept to a minimum.
