The Glazers are selling MU for 3 billion pounds.

The Daily Mail (UK) reported that the Glazer family has decided to sell Manchester United Club in the hope of earning 3 billion pounds.

In 2005, Malcolm Glazer decided to spend 790 million pounds to take over MU. Less than 10 years later, the value of the Old Trafford team has increased dramatically. According to the latest assessment of Forbes magazine (USA), the value of the Red Devils is currently at 1.75 billion pounds, ranked 3rd in the world, after Real Madrid (2.1 billion pounds) and Barcelona (2 billion pounds).

However, on May 28, Malcolm Glazer passed away at the age of 86. After their father passed away, Glazer's 6 children, including Avram, Kevin, Bryan, Joel, Darcie and Edwward, showed no interest in owning MU, especially when the Red Devils played quite poorly last season as well as this year.

The Glazers are no longer interested in owning MU.

According to insiders, a few days after their father's death, Avram and Joel met with their siblings to discuss a plan to sell MU to divide the inheritance and focus on investing in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a professional American football club.

Recently, the Daily Mail published information about the Glazer family's decision to sell MU with the hope of 3 billion pounds. That is the wish, but Malcolm's 6 children are willing to transfer ownership of the red half of Manchester to any partner willing to spend 2 billion pounds.

To make it easier to sell MU, the Glazer family is determined to buy back superstar Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid. It is known that the MU owners plan to spend 60 million pounds to convince Real to transfer Ronaldo in the summer of 2015.

In the summer of 2010, a group of wealthy MU fans known as the Red Knights made an offer to buy the club for £1.5 billion. But they were flatly rejected.

At the end of March, a group of players from the 1992 “golden generation” of MU, including Ryan Giggs, Nicky Butt, Paul Scholes and the Neville brothers, offered to buy the team for 2 billion pounds. The reason they made this offer was because they received support from the Qatar royal family. However, the offer of the players from the 1992 generation was also “rejected”.

Most likely, after receiving this signal, the players of the "golden generation" of 1992 will continue to resume negotiations to buy the old team they used to play for.
