Gary Neville has slammed the Glazer family for 'playing' around in Manchester United's sale process.
His fury follows reports that Elliott Management, a US hedge fund which looks after assets worth an eye-watering $56billion (£46bn), has made it through to the second stage of the takeover process. That's despite Elliott not wanting to buy the club, unlike Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani.
BBC Sport claims that representatives from the investment group, which previously owned Italian giants AC Milan, were present at Old Trafford on Thursday for the Red Devils' 4-1 win at home to Real Betis in the Europa League. While Elliott is not looking to buy a stake in United, it's said to be offering financial backing to all parties involved - including if the Glazer family choose to stay. It's been suggested that Elliott could assist with redeveloping Old Trafford and the club's Carrington training complex.
