United have been owned by the Glazers since 2005, when the Red Devils were purchased for £790 million. In the 17 years since, the United faithful have been treated to countless trophies, domestic and European, but, in recent years the fans have been visibly frustrated with the style of ownership.
A lack of major signings, small transfer budgets, and poor management have ultimately led to the Glazers being open to potential bids. Two runners are currently looking to become the new owners, Sir Jim Ratcliffe and investors from Qatar.
On the blue side of Manchester, the Citizens have been charged by the Premier League for more than 100 breaches of financial fair play regulations. It will be an anxious wait to find out what their punishment could be!
