Manchester United is up for sale 17 years on from the Glazer family achieving majority ownership of the club.
Manchester United's owners, the Glazers, have put the club up for sale, a statement issued on Tuesday night said.
"As part of this process, the Board will consider all strategic alternatives, including new investment into the club, a sale, or other transactions involving the Company.
"We will evaluate all options to ensure that we best serve our fans and that Manchester United maximizes the significant growth opportunities available to the Club today and in the future. Throughout this process we will remain fully focused on serving the best interests of our fans, shareholders, and various stakeholders.”
The Glazer family have remained almost universally unpopular in the 17 years since, with mass protests taking place at the time of the takeover, and again in 2010, 2021 and this year.
