Avram Glazer makes rare Man Utd appearance to affirm Sir Jim Ratcliffe takeover plan

Avram Glazer was in attendance at Wembley on Sunday to watch Manchester United lose to Chelsea in the Women's FA Cup final.

It's the second game which any members of Glazer family have attended this season after also watching United's men lift the Carabao Cup in February which was a sign of their continued commitment to the club. Avram's latest appearance gives a strong suggestion that Sir Jim Ratcliffe 's takeover plan will indeed involve both him and his brother Joel Glazer remaining at Old Trafford.

British billionaire Ratcliffe, 70, this week moved a significant step closer to completing his majority purchase of United for £5billion. His deal would see the Glazer brothers keep smaller shares for three years, with set dates in 2026 for when they must sell.
