The Glazers finally reportedly accepted Qatari bid for Manchester United as Sheikh Jassim begins due diligence.

Qatar business mogul Sheikh Jassim is set to complete his takeover in October, which rules out the chance of United signing Mbappe before the ongoing transfer window slams shut on September 1. Yet the 24-year-old World Cup winner could be up for grabs in a year’s time.

Mbappe wants to leave Paris Saint-Germain when his contract expires next summer, with Real Madrid leading the race for his signature. Yet PSG are determined to tie him down to a new deal to stop him leaving the French capital on a free transfer.

The takeover talks have dragged on for nine months now, with the Glazers first confirming they were ‘exploring strategic alternatives’ all the way back in November of last year.

Since the backend of last season, the bidding process has been whittled down to a straight shootout between Qatari-backed Sheikh Jassim and Ineos founder Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

But Sheikh Jassim kept upping his offer despite various deadlines having elapsed and now The Sun are reporting that the Glazers have at last managed to all agree and will commit to a full sale of the club.

According to a new report reaching SportsFila.com, senior figures at Old Trafford warned the Glazers there would be a ‘huge backlash’ from supporters if they held onto any shares.

But Avram and Joel appear to have relented and the family’s controversial 18-year reign at Old Trafford looks set to come to an end.

It’s claimed Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani wants to sign Mbappe for Manchester United.

Sheikh Jassim is expected to hand Erik ten Hag a huge transfer budget. Whether they pay PSG a transfer fee or offer Mbappe a lucrative contract as a free agent, United are set to be competitive in the transfer market again with the Qatari’s cash.

And rumours of Sheikh Jassim’s desire to bring Mbappe to Old Trafford as a marque signing continue to emerge on the continent. As recently as last Friday, Spanish outlet El Nacional claimed United are interested in making Mbappe their ‘franchise player’.

Sheikh Jassim will buy 100 per cent of the club and will also wipe out the gross debt of £725million that was racked up over the Glazers’ stewardship of United.

The Qatari banker’s team are currently completing due diligence on the club before the takeover can be rubberstamped, with the deal likely to be completed around mid-October.

In addition to completing their own due diligence, the Qatari bid will also need to pass the Premier League’s Owners’ and Directors’ test, also known as the Fit and Proper Persons’ test, before it can be signed off.

Gareth Southgate to Manchester United Doesnt’ Make Sense

Published

on

There is NO REASON for Gareth Southgate to be linked with the Manchester United job

Gareth Southgate is the only person in the Universe who can turn Manchester United into Middlesbrough within no time

The English media is trying all their best to push Southgate to united, but he is championship level manager at best

The England national team is waay better than this Manu squad, and he has had 0 success ( reaching semis ain’t success). So what exactly are people expecting if he becomes Manu boss

Absolutely no way! Why would Man U hire Southgate? That would be the worse decision in the history of the game.

ETH outwitted Klopp last weekend in one of the best and most dramatic FA cup clashes in years and I’m sorry but Southgate would not have won that game and ETH has had to deal with Ronaldo, Sancho, Greenwood and so on, he deserves more time

I have been saying this for weeks now. If United were under any other manager especially Southgate, they would be fighting for relegation right now. The problem at United is not Ten Hag but the players.

People keep saying that Ten Hag’s style of football at United is not attractive and no identity but there is so much that a manager can do if the players themselves are not good enough or not putting enough effort. Ten Hag’s Ajax were playing attractive football and he managed to get them to the SF of the CL.

Without him, look at Ajax now. And the media keep pushing their agenda to get Ten Hag sack and replace him with a much worse manager like Southgate. If Ten Hag is managing England right now, with the players they have, we won’t see such a passive football like we saw yesterday vs Brazil. Ask Liverpool fans, would they replace Klopp with Southgate? I rest my case.

Liverpool blame themselves for FA Cup loss to Man United

Liverpool only have themselves to blame for loss to Manchester United. Had to find a way to squeeze in the random Bruno slag off in between. Dude was dead on his feet at full time, and had to slot in to center back for the last 30 minutes.

SportsFila reflect on Manchester United’s 4-3 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup Quarterfinals and look ahead to the semifinals where Erik ten Hag’s side will take on Coventry.

How come everybody seems to have forgotten that 2 of LFC’s goals were pure luck?

More shots, same shots on goal, higher goal expectancy. What is this narrative that Liverpool should have put this game away, if anything we should’ve put this game away! They had a good 20, 25 minute stint where they kept the ball in the second half, but did nothing with it, we deservedly won this game.

For Liverpool fans: don’t say that we lost to Manchester United because Jota Trent Alisson and jones didn’t play. We have to stop doing that every time a team loses a big game it’s very stupid because had you won, you wouldn’t be saying that. Don’t forget that when y’all drew 0-0 to them at home Trent Alisson and Jones started. Keep in mind how well they’ve been playing despite having lots of injuries they almost beat Manchester City’s full strength squad last week.

Also, you lose to Manchester United, 2 fringe players for them decided the game for them, Liverpool didn’t play well and a loss is a loss you have to accept it otherwise you’re a sole loser and are unwilling to take it.

It’s interesting how nothing much is said about the mistakes made by Liverpool, but all criticism is piled on Bruno; how supposedly poor he was.

Ten Hag Says Man United Are on Track

Published

Ten Hag claims United is moving in the right direction 👀 WHAT DIRECTION IS THAT?!

Every time he speaks after a dismal performance after the match I always sit there saying to myself “What on Earth are you talking about”.

The media trying so hard to get ETH sacked…..when liverpool had bad injuries with VVD out, y’all didnt have the same energy

Most fans want ETH out because of his poor tactics and substitutions. I also felt he should be braver to drop non-performing players irrespective of names, and even play academy players if he has to.

Now I’m ETH in because I realise from Rooney’s and Ole’s recent interviews that the mentality of these players are incredibly low and it’s no longer just speculation that the players can’t cope on this stage.

I can understand ETH saying positive things and coming off as “crazy” but if you have players who are weak minded and aren’t willing to fight, you can’t be tough cos they’ll cave and where does that leave you for the rest of the season?! Jason Sancho case in point. I rather come across as insane to the media but hope that I’m lifting the team enough to get a string of performances to save my job and give the fans at least something to cheer about until I can have a summer clear out.

 

Keane is a freaking legend but that approach with these weak players will kill them and ETH would lose the dressing room.

This man keeps dropping off bombs on and off the field..A gift that keeps on giving..Most delulu man on this green earth
What a GIFT! Hand him a 15 years contract and 5 years add ons

The problem for Utd in recruiting an elite manager in the Summer is that Liverpool, Bayern and Barca will also be looking for new managers.

From the moment I heard “A new era begins. .” from ETH. I knew it was the joke of the century. He has the guts to say it while Klopp/Guardiola are competing against each other by 1 point in the Primer league he acted like he can compete with them ro
