The potential sale of Manchester United is "moving forward", according to former club director Michael Knighton.
There has long been a clamour for the Glazers to sell up amid growing fan hostility, which has been underlined by recent protests. Failings on the field and mismanagement off it has seen the club's Americans owners face huge pressure to go, although they have stood firm so far.
United's profile and stature means few can afford the Premier League outfit, but a handful of buyers will be interested. Knighton himself made a play to buy the Red Devils back in the 1980s, ultimately failing, but was handed a seat on the board of directors instead.
