The discontent among Manchester United fans continues to grow as the Glazers, the American owners of the legendary English football club, have put out the club for sale. In November 2022, the Glazers announced their intention to consider options for the club’s ownership for the foreseeable future. However, the long wait and lack of visible progress have frustrated and angry the fans.
Despite lucrative offers from Billionaires such as Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Glazers seem to hold onto the club. The offers are estimated at around a whooping £5 billion, but the Glazers are determined to hold onto their price of £6 billion for the club.
The Glazer’s stubborn stance about the sale, combined with the strict Premier League regulations, indicates that they will be under the management of Manchester United for their upcoming season.
The Daily Mail has reported that the Glazers are considering holding onto the Red Devils for a bit longer until the demand for the team surges. This significant step has set the United fans into rage and anger. The decision by the Glazers has seemingly dismissed the aspirations of passionate fans who were eager for a change.
Fans had hoped that Sir Jim or Sheikh Jassim would take charge by the end of the summer transfer window. The Red Devils’ fans believe the club’s glorious history deserves ownership committed to the team’s triumphs.

The future of Manchester United’s ownership
As Manchester United’s ownership saga continues, the future of the club’s ownership remains uncertain. The Glazers, who have been in charge of the English Giants since 2005, have put a staggering £6 billion price tag, repelling potential buyers and disappointing the fans.
Two prominent figures have expressed interest in retaining the club: Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim. As per reports, both are willing to spend around £5 billion. The United supporters have continuously demonstrated their discontent and frustrations through protesters demanding a change in ownership that will prioritize the team’s success and long-term future for the club.
As the new Premier League season approaches, the prospect of the Glazers retaining their ownership has raised serious concerns among the supporters. Until a proper resolution is reached, the fate of one of the most illustrious football institutions remains uncertain, leaving the fans and enthusiasts to hope for a change to bring back the old glory days.
