Manchester United owners Joel and Avram Glazer set to STAY if hedge fund purchases club

Manchester United statue of 'Holy Trinity' of players stands in front of Old Trafford after being unveiled today on May 29, 2008, Manchester, England. The statue of United legends Bobby Charlton, Denis Law and the late George Best comes 40 years to the day since the club first lifted the European Cup. Charlton, Best and Law scored 665 goals between them for United and between 1964 and 1968, all won the coveted European Footballer of the Year award.

Manchester United are facing the possibility of the Glazer family remaining in charge of the club.

In November of last year, Joel and Avram Glazer confirmed they were open to the idea of selling the Red Devils, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani making official bids three months later. No bid has matched the US owners' valuation of the club so far, however.
