‘100% confirmed’ – Fabrizio Romano gives fresh Man United takeover update

Posted by

Man United supporters continue to wait on tenterhooks for news of a takeover of the club by either Sir Jim Ratcliffe of Sheikh Jassim.

Seeing the end of the 18-year reign of the Glazer family would surely be the best start to the 2023/24 season for any true Red Devil’s fan, however, the lack of positive news in that regard must be a frustration for all.

From Erik ten Hag’s point of view, he can still get to work and buy in some new stars within the current budget, but it would almost certainly be a given that if the club were soon taken over, the Dutchman would have more money to spend on rebuilding his squad.

The fans could look forward to a new dawn at Old Trafford in much the same way as Newcastle United fans did when the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) took over at St. James’ Park.

United fans continue to protest about the Glazers’ ownership of the club

Unfortunately for all concerned, there doesn’t appear to be a swift resolution ahead at this point.

“The situation is still the same, so it’s a very complicated story,” reliable transfer guru, Fabrizio Romano, said to Give Me Sport.

“Things are happening, for sure, behind the scenes. This is 100% confirmed.”

That’s unlikely to be what supporters want to hear, though it seems clear that the Glazer’s have never really had them at the forefront of their minds when making business decisions for the club, so why would they change the habit of a lifetime.

At this rate, the toxic environment enveloping the club looks certain to continue.

  1. Getting sick of reading links reporting the sale will happen in next few days or next few hours. Just leave it till it happens. 😳😤

  2. So misleading. ‘100% confirmed’. I could have confirmed that “things are happening”. Things are always happening. 2 bidders bidding for Man United – no doubt things are happening. So ridiculous.

  3. It’s becoming crystal clear the egocentric behaviour of the Glazers, they don’t bother what anyone thinks about them about their never ready attitude. They’re certainly not care about the future of the club. What interest them most is about their inordinate desire. They’re taking the whole English club authority for a ride.

  4. The selfish Glazers are uncivilized and I wonder why they cannot think wisely as to why they are now forcefully driven off from this investment. The angered fans are fed up with their mismanagement of this historic club. Faithful fans have stand firmly as an institution to liberate their club from this modern slavery. There is need for new ownership.
    An investor who will finance the club and modernize its facilities and infrastructure.
    EtH needs to be backed fully in this transfer if he is to compete with the likes of Man City,Liverpool,Arsenal and Chelsea.

  5. Glazers are watching stock value rise so they can another loan. Don’t think they will ever sale. Without Man United they are nobodies, no interest in the success of the club. Just money grabbing. £700 million in debt thanks to 6 glazers.

  6. I wonder how the glazers manage to sleep at night with all these bad attributes from the fans. They have really dent the image of manchester united, sending the club history to abyss, good players hardly wants to come to the club. I believe the glazers must go neither by fire or by force!!!

  7. The protest need to be more intense with ALL Man united supporters club joining together to get rid of the Glazers once & for all.

  8. Please glazzerz whats wrong with you ? How long will u take to decide to enable us also to plan for the team?? Bear in mind that time is a resource once wasted no more replacement…

  9. It is up to US genuine and faithful LONG standing supporters all over the world to put a stop to the Glazers family. Enough is enough.

  10. The Glazers doesn’t want to sell the club, its clearly that they still want to run the business, besides that the business needs stock for the businessman to make money not just to receive, that’s what these people are doing.

  11. Glazers must go and leave our fevourite club as fans of manchester united we need our club to get where it was as glory and breakthrough

  12. Because of these Glazers, players needed by UTD are now moving to other clubs, we need strikers for the beginning of this season oo, they shud just surrender so that we get cash for business. 😭😢

  13. Glazers you put the club on sale with an price and there are two qualified bidders who meet your price. My question is:”What do you want.? Take your money and go!!!

    1. That’s the problem, the Glazers NEVER formally set a price for the club. It was the media who reported that they wanted £6bn but that was not verified. And I’m not convinced that Sir Jim Ratcliffe or Sheikh Jassim have matched that price. The Glazers never set a price because if they had and it was met they would have believed they could have got more. That’s how greedy self centered people think.

  14. This has got to be the biggest joke.. Parasites the Glazers..Just hope the fans hold protests at their very doorsteps and merchandise shop without letting up..If they need to be chased out by the fans, that would be the ultimate victory…😠

  15. The Glazers are SABOTAGING our BELOVED United, by dragging out this whole process…

  16. It’s crystal clear the glazers don’t want to sell. They enjoy the ongoing protest and criticism from fans . They are bad luck to this wonderful and historical club. It was a big mistake to sell the club to them in the first place. The only way out is total boycott from any foot ball match ,home or away.

    1. I agree, if the fans totally boycott all games, and all press coverage is stopped, watch the process spread up.

  17. It’s all Alex Ferguson’s fault. He should have stuck with the football and had nothing to do with Rock of Gibraltar. The club was doing fine and well run till then.

  18. This process of takeover is now causing us sleepless nights. If thy want to sale why are thy delaying. Or the reporters are the ones giving us false reports. Bullshit …..

  19. Am tired and bored of by the glazer’s what they have done for the 18 year’s is enough enough enough…….

  20. All we can do is hope they leave our club for good.Put our faith in some of the kids coming through the youth system,try and sell some of the dead wood on stupid wages.we will come back,so keep the faith everybody,United for ever.

  21. We the fans are tryed of the Glazers, other teams are shopping now ,so far united has get only one player why are the Glazers frustrating us like small team’s we want trophy and we are now there for champion a league ,what are the Glazers after,you win trophies you get money

  22. I’m really really so frastrated with attitude of the glazers. Man utd will be nowhere next season
