The Manchester United Supporters' Trust have issued a statement welcoming the news that the Glazer family have finally put the club on the market.
The American family, who purchased United back in May 2005, are massively unpopular with fans and have been the subject of multi protests over the past few years. There had been speculation - after the latest protests earlier this year - that the Glazers were considering their options in relation to their ownership of the club.
That speculation was ended late last night in a statement which confirmed that the club would commence "a process to explore strategic alternatives" - meaning a full takeover of the club has not been ruled out. The news came just hours after Manchester United confirmed they had terminated Cristiano Ronaldo's contract with "immediate effect".
