„Changes may occur among the owners of the “Man Utd” team. As reported by the „Mirror“, the Glazer family that controls the “Red Devils” team would not object to parting with their ownership, but they must receive a suitable offer. The Americans would unpleasantly surprise fans by selling “Man Utd” if they were to receive an offer of around £4 billion. The Glazers took over “Man Utd” in 2005 for £790 million.
According to the press, the current enormous value is determined taking into account the club's rich history and the possibility of signing huge contracts with sponsors in the future. For example, it was recently announced that the company “TeamViewer“ will take over the advertising position on “Man Utd” jerseys from next season, signing a five-year contract worth £235 million.
