The family are looking to sell the club
The Glazer family have released a statement following confirmation that they are exploring the possibility of selling the club.
It was reported on Tuesday that the American owners were looking to move on after 17 years of owning the Red Devils.
“As we seek to continue building on the club’s history of success, the board has authorised a thorough evaluation of strategic alternatives,” said executive co-chairmen and directors Avram Glazer and Joel Glazer in a statement.
“We will evaluate all options to ensure that we best serve our fans and that Manchester United maximises 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.”

Should a sale go through it would mark the end of a 17-year spell dominated by fan protests at the way the family has run the club, before and after, the failed European Super League project.
