The Manchester United Thread

If it's true then the media will go even more bonkers on who Ten Hag is after. What they don't realise is there is still a little matter of FFP which needs to be considered.

Manchester United takeover: Club still negotiating sale with multiple parties

Negotiations around the potential sale of Manchester United are still taking place with multiple parties.

Negotiations around the potential sale of Manchester United are still taking place with multiple parties.

Reuters reported on Thursday that United were negotiating exclusivity with Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani.

It follows growing speculation Sheikh Jassim's bid is likely to succeed.

However, sources have told BBC Sport exclusivity had not been granted and talks were continuing with interested parties.

At the start of this week, reports from Qatar claimed Sheikh Jassim was going to be named United's new owner, but the publication involved later issued a clarification.

However, United's share price, which had risen sharply, did not drop back fully, suggesting a belief among investors Sheikh Jassim's attempt to buy 100% of the club was going to be successful.

Earlier this month, Sheikh Jassim lodged his fifth bid for United, which remains on the table despite suggestions he would not engage with the process beyond 9 June.

Sheikh Jassim is competing with Sir Jim Ratcliffe's Ineos Group in trying to buy the Premier League club.

Ratcliffe and Ineos are willing to secure a majority stake, which would allow current owners the Glazer family to retain representation in some capacity.

The Glazers announced in November they were considering selling United as they "explore strategic alternatives".

Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s turbulent ownership of Nice:
🔺
Captain and Staff complaints about direction
🔺
Fan protests
🔺
Ex-military man on player performance. And investigation into drugs
🔺
Police investigation into allegations of racism and gambling by former coach @AdamCrafton_ #MUFC
 
Fair play to Crafton. The abuse he’s gotten online throughout this process has been absolutely disgusting. Yes he’s written a few pro Ratcliffe pieces and called out stuff about Qatar. But if he’s found anything on Ratcliffe he’s reported it correctly. Really objective and unbias reporter!
 
Shame. Especially after hearing Utd offered her the wages she wanted. Her brothers/ who are her agents have handled this like ****. It’s funny she’s going to Arsenal who are losing all their best players. And we finished above. Makes all her talk of being a true die hard Utd fan bolloc ks! And for all her hype she only scored 10 gls. Should be easy to replace.

Ona Battle is also leaving. Was always going to happen as she’s never lied about dreaming of playing for Barca. Already signed her replacement in January hugely talented Jayde Riviere

Evan Ferguson leads the line for Ireland tonight.
I'd love to see a young Irish striker at United again.

I would love us to go for him. He looks absolute class. Obviously not this window as he’s just agreed a new contract. And if we get Hojlund there won’t be a point going for him next summer
