Manchester United insist they have set up shop in Davos this week to entertain clients and partners, rather than attract buyers for the club. United revealed at the end of last year that the Glazers had put the club up for sale as they explored strategic alternatives, including the possibility of a full takeover.
There has been no official comment on the sales process since the initial statement in November, though it is understood the Glazer family would prefer to proceed with a full sale of the club amid the ongoing strategic review.
This week, many United fans grew excited about the possibility of an impending takeover, when it emerged the club had set up a lounge at the World Economic Forum (WEF) which runs from January 16 to 20 in the Alpine resort of Davos, Switzerland.
