As the soft deadline for formal bids for Manchester United looms later this month there are expected to be a number of groups in the mix.
The Old Trafford side were put up for sale back in November by the Glazer family, just days after Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group had revealed that they were seeking a partial sale of the club but were open to divesting their interest in the club should the right offer come along.
Little has materially changed on that front for Liverpool since November. A number of potential suitors have been linked to talks but sources in the US close to the situation have maintained to the ECHO that there have been no firm bids or expressions of interest made to top brass, although with the United sale now hotting up there could be some concrete interest heading in the direction of FSG in the coming weeks.
