The Glazer family, which own a controlling majority of Manchester United, are now seeking a full sale of the club as opposed to partial investment. The news will be welcomed by the vast majority of Red Devils, who have longed to see the Americans walk away from Old Trafford.
Last November, the Glazers announced they were investigating "all strategic alternatives, including new investment in the club, a sale, or other transactions involving the company". It was the first time they had publicly considered selling the club they took over in a controversial leveraged buyout Almost 20 years ago.
