Old Trafford |
The Sun had held a Q&A session with Old Trafford Non-executive director in which he quoted that the Glazers will sell Manchester United at some point.
This may mean that Christmas has come sooner for the Man United fans.Many fans still had the Glazers because of the debts they have saddled the club with. The debts is said to be over £750 million(£250 million is said to have already been paid off.)
This could come as a green light for Qatar royal family, headed by Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, to buy United in a £1.5billion deal. Glazers will stand to make double the £790 million they paid for the club 5 years ago.
"The belief is that they [Qatar royal family] have already brought in extra finance from a third party in a bid to set the club up for a sale," a source told the Sun.
Qatar has suddenly come to the limelight after clinching the World Cup 2022 bid and they followed it by a sponsor deal worth £150 million with Barcelona. Barcelona never had a shirt sponsor before.
But if eventually Glazers do decide to sell Man United there are many potential suitors. Even if the time is uncertain Manchester United is the most valued club.
