Man Utd takeover eyed by tech giants Apple in bid to make them world's richest club

Manchester United are being eyed up by technology giants Apple in a mouth-watering £5.8billion deal.

It has been confirmed that the Glazers have decided to put the Red Devils up for sale, 17 years after the American family brought the club. The Red Devils announced in a statement that the Glazers were exploring "strategic alternatives" and it is understood they will sell to the highest bidder.
