- Glazer's asking price not met
- Will continue their tenureship of United
- Decision likely to annoy fans further
WHAT HAPPENED? A source at the Daily Mail has claimed that the Glazers, who have owned United since 2005, will continue running the club for the foreseeable future. Their fresh £10bn asking price wasn't met by any of the bidders, despite offers from Sheikh Jassim of Qatar and Jim Ratcliffe. The American businessmen are seemingly content to keep hold of their asset until a suitable offer arrives.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: This will no doubt anger United fans. with a portion of the fanbase being vocally against the Glazer family. There's already been a protest against their ownership this season and anti-Glazer songs sung every time United play, whether that be at Old Trafford or on the road.
