Glazers “in no rush” to sell Man Utd as fans warned takeover saga could rumble on

It has been 267 days since the Glazer family announced their intention to sell up at Manchester United but fans are still waiting for a takeover to be confirmed

Former Manchester United star Teddy Sheringham has sent a warning to the club’s supporters that the Glazers may not be departing any time soon.

A full 267 days after the Glazer family confirmed they were looking to sell the football club, the much-maligned American family remain very much at the helm at Old Trafford. And that’s despite Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim and Ineos chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe having long submitted big money bids to takeover.

There has been ample speculation that confirmation of a deal with Sheikh Jassim was imminent, but thus far nothing has come to fruition. The prolonged saga has undoubtedly restricted Erik ten Hag in the transfer market this summer, with the manager now needing to sell players to raise funds amid FFP restrictions.

The fanbase has consistently made its feelings known on the Glazers, with the yellow and green protest scarves still prevalent at United’s league games. And earlier this summer, a demonstration was held outside the official club shop, blocking people from purchasing new shirts.
