How much are the Glazers worth and how much could they sell Manchester United for?

Manchester United fans' worries were hugely alleviated last night when the club announced the news they'd been wanting to hear for years - the Glazer family are exploring a sale.

Disheartened by a lack of spending, facility improvements and, above all, a lack of trophies and forward planning, fans have called for the Americans to leave for over a decade with only the brilliance of Sir Alex Ferguson somewhat prolonging the reign of success he brought to United from 1986 to 2005.

After reaching a deal by mutual consent to cancel Cristiano Ronaldo 's contract earlier in the day, the Glazers make even bigger news when they released a club statement announcing their intentions to take the club in a different strategical direction. That, as they said, was 'through including new investment into the club, a sale, or other transactions involving the company," and fans will be interested to see just where their future lies.
