The Glazer family are exploring the option of putting Manchester United up for sale. The family have been unpopular at Old Trafford since taking control of the club using £500m of debt towards a £790m takeover back in 2005.
Combine that with the failed European Super League plot and a decline on the pitch, has resulted in discontent among the fanbase. There have been regular protests at Old Trafford, including fans storming the pitch back in 2021 which saw their game against Liverpool postponed.
Manchester United would become the latest in a flurry of Premier League club to swap hands, following Newcastle United and Chelsea in a change of ownership. The Red Devils are currently listed on the New York Stock Exchange with share prices on Tuesday implying a $2.15bn valuation – however, the club’s real worth is believed to be in the region of £5bn and £9bn.
