Topic: Who takes over Manchester United ? - page 2. (Read 273 times)

So far, the two main candidates for the new Manchester United boss have remained unchanged, namely Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani. However, negotiations that have been going on for months reportedly have not reached a meeting point, because the offers from the two figures have not reached what the Glazer family wants. And maybe if it is in accordance with the agreement of both parties, especially the Glazer family, it will definitely be announced.
and if a change of ownership is achieved I think Manchesrer United will be a tough contender for Manchester City and Erik ten Hag should be able to capitalize on this and improve what his team needs and also work out the best plan for next season.

True. The Arabs will win this one too. Their money is worth more than GBP because they have that black liquid coming out of their soil and the whole world needs that liquid. If this continues like this, soon the Arabs will own Europe completely. They already own many football teams but I don’t think football teams are the only thing they own there. Since they have more money than anyone else, they will own every other failing asset the Europeans couldn’t manage successfully.

Similar stuff happened in Greece. Greece couldn’t pay their debt to Germany in the past and now they are living as a defacto German state.

I don't know of any but I'll do a research about that, when I used (odds) in my statement, I meant the probability of Sheikh jasim winning the bidding war against Sir Jim and yes of course the Qatari owners would make the perfect owners for the Red devils when it comes to full financial support and more development of the club of which they've already pledged a billion $ for renovation or new building of stadium and training grounds including development of the youth and women football sector, while on their bidding process.

in my opinion, the owners of manchester united should have already sold to the candidate who offered the most money and who promised to put the club at the top and when i talk about the top i mean winning the premier league and european champions league, but this delay is putting all this at risk, it seems that the objective of the current owners of manchester united is not to see the team going far, since they bought the team that has not been doing well, has been hiring players in a bad way, they do not know how to put money in the player sure, the team has not been a team capable of fighting for the title

they are a set of disasters with them in charge and now even in the sale of the team they continue to do shit, I sincerely hope that they sell the team soon and that the next owner is someone with a better brain than theirs, we have already seen that just because a team was acquired by someone rich does not guarantee that this team will have good results, there are concrete examples of this such as the case of manchester united, chelsea and PSG that only wins Ligue 1 because in france there is no strong opponent capable of competing against them. but we also saw good examples like newcastle recently and manchester city. so it all depends on the style of the person who will buy the team

I will prefer to take jassim to take over manchester united rather than Sir Jim. The manchester city has been proving if middle east owner was also able making its club to be a great club. Look at how dominating manchester city in the EPL. Winning three seasons in a row and this time treble winners.

That's probably right but only if glazer will approve his last bid. Glazers demands 6.4bn but jassim is not willing to play as big as glazer wants.

True. So many complicated progress happened. Jassim has been sending offer so many times but glazer was still rejecting it or not give an answer regarding it.

It is taking much time because the Glazers are seriously undecided on the kind of sale they would want. Both NIEOS and Sir Jim are actually offering the the Glazers a bid that could still keep them in the club. According or reports they want the Glazers to still hold on to 25% of the club and they are offering around 5.5 billion and also the local fans are actually leaning towards them and with this juicy offer of 5 billion and a share the Glazers are also considering them but the major problem is the debt and rebuilding process hasn’t even been discussed on to clear it which is actually not a good sign.

The Shiekh Jassim on the other hand doesn’t want a portion sale and wants to buy the entire club and also clear the debts and he has the plans of renovating the Old Trafford but his bid is still not accepted yet because he offered around 6 billion for the whole sale and this looks small to the Glazers. The local Fans and some club legend also don’t want him but most of the foreign fans support him. I believe it is just greediness of keeping the share or going on with a full sale that is keeping the deal still yet to be finalized. With the Sheikh declaring that last Friday was his last time to talk about the sale, news reported that the Glazes went to PSG owners to help convince the Jassim to increase his bid which I think is just ridiculous because he is Coming to inherit a debt affected club.

Before the end of June I feel that Jassim would be considered buyer because after all the Glazers have no united at heart

but if it is all about the money, then, why this Qatari came to up until 5th bid last week and still no clear answer if he will ever get this team? though we don't know if it is on the works already.
yes, i can agree the Qataris have the highest bid because they can afford it. but we don't know all the reasons why it is taking so long for this negotiation.
there's no news yet on who is the final name that will take over on this team? try searching over the net though.

Your odds?? I don't get... Is there something I'm missing??
Can I get that straight... Is anyone supposed to debate/wager who's gonna buy the club?? Are there such option??...
Those Arabians are fuckin' rich and the value of Thier currency is worth more than ours - atleast... It's usually for anyone that places the higher bid, uuhhh, but sometimes there are usually some conditions anyways - since some billionaires don't even know how to finance and manage a club, which seems to be the most important part of the team's success... So personally, I Feel the dude from Qatar will go with it.

I've pondered on your question and I think the Glazier have over stayed their welcome because lots of their fans are already eager for them to leave, they need owner with big bags that would be able to compete with the likes of Newcastle and their neighbour ManCity when it comes to spending on suitable and world class players.
  moreover the glaziers, have taken more dividends than they've invested in the Club. the past years, Manchester United have suffered the loss of about £354m since their takeover as owners.
 And they're poor when it comes to investments in the club instance their Carrington training ground needs renovation, including the youth and females as well, the old Trafford stadium too needs renovation, no wonder some former players talked about  seeing same equipments they left 13years ago being used till now, even their famous legend Ronaldo complained about the swimming pool and training ground he left since about 2009/2010 still in same state and when it comes to transfer they're very reluctant in backing their managers early, imagine employing a banker in person of Woodward without football ideas and experience to be in charge as chairman. If the glaziers are handling the club well and having the interest of the fans in mind there won't be protests against them during every match day with posters saying glaziers out.

Yes I am sure the Arabia mogul is going to win the bid at the end and this os because of what you mentioned which is passion for the game and I am certain the new owner will invest a huge amount into buying new players that will give Manchester city a facelift and placing them on a better position for the next season, but then let wait and see who walk away as the new owner and what steps their going to take to revive the club and make profits on their investment.

If they are only considering about the amount of money here, the Arab money is a tough competitor on this field.
However, it seems that they want the Brit billionaire to be the next owner of this team.
Rumors said that Qataris are making a 100% bid, whereas, the Brit is offering only a majority control.

But up until this date, there's no one in papers who is to be the new owner. Seems that they are not very interested with Jassim's very lucrative offer.
The deadline was last Friday from Jassim's camp, and we haven't heard any news afterwards.

There are a lot of rumors about contenders eager to take over the club. But supporters in these types of clubs also have something to say. You will probably end up with a wealthy American businessman. For example, you have Mark Cuban, known from the Shark tank program, who is interested in taking over a football team while he already owns the Mavericks in the NBA. You really have to come to Manchester with a big bag of money. But why should anyone buy it over? What are we missing in the current construction?

man utd is a successful team that was built by the glazer family and until now sudha has hundreds of fans around the world reportedly are the most fans so even up to the 10th bid, sheikh jassim will not be able to buy man utd

the glazer family really takes good care of man utd and reportedly will never sell man utd to anyone at any time

If it should be done base on highest bidder the Arab money will be the one to own it,because we have seen how much these Arab investors now have passion for football and can pay any amount to get what they want.

On the other hand if it comes to been biased,I think that the English man will have an upper hand in buying Manchester united,because the English men might never want to foreigner to buy the club since the royal family has a connection with the club. Time will tell who will become the new CEO of Manchester united.

Bidding is part of every auction for every big sale out there.I would probably like to see Manchester United to be bought by an English billionaire rather than a foreigner billionaire but as already said here the one who has the more money will most likely win this bidding.

For sport fans though it would be a great move if Manchester is taken by any billionaire as it means they will most probably be spending a lot of money making it a strong team,much stronger than Manchester United already is and the more such teams we have the better the Premier League will be,there will not be anymore a single team domination like Manchester City is doing in these recent years.

I agree with you when you said the more money you got determines the number of world class players a club could get, but saying Manchester City under performed this season is something I don't understand, because when it comes to the transfer window they spent on good players that in return helped them achieve the treble, which is not easy to achieve, they're only few clubs that's done that and this season is one of if not their best, winning the English Premier league, FA Cup and UEFA champions league trophy and their striker halland winning the golden Boot in both Premier league and UEFA, of which they won't have attained if they underperformed like you said, well everyone have their opinions, but I think they'll do just fine cause they're on the right track, with the best players, best manger and right backing from their very rich owners.

We cant really know but one thing its sure, the fans i think needs to have a more clasical british guy than a foreign man, they had foreing and in the alst year they dont worked well.

So they need to come back to the foundations.

But like the guy above me said, its all about money, and the one who puts more its gonna take it.

A qatar billionaire would be ideal as next owner of Manchester UTD, considering the owner of Man City  . It would be interesting to see what will happen in the next months, I think that a big challenge against the two

Manchester's team could born.

This is gambling and the wider with the bigger bag will take home Manchester Unite because at this point we can't really connect to dots that can link us to the right speculation and if the buyer has a lot of money to sign the best players in the next transfer windows that could lead to a facelift for Manchester United against the next season.
Manchester's city has really underperformed this season and if care is not taken the next season may be worst, because other clubs are ready to send money in getting their squad together by getting the best players on the board.

 With the sale of Manchester United imminent, who do you think would be the preferred bidder between, British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Qatar billionaire Sheikh Jassim?

 My odds are that Sheikh would win the bid and take fully control of Manchester United.

 However i feel the glaziers are reluctant to sell, due to the prolonged rounds of bidding and they're doing so to avoid much spending in the upcoming transfer window.
