Manchester United was all over the news again, and this time it was not about Mourinho or the player's form. This time it was for Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman who is interested to acquire one of the biggest clubs in the world. Prince Mohammad is one of the richest men in the world. It is understood that Saudi Prince wants to keep up with their neighbors. The neighboring countries like Qatar and UAE own some biggest clubs in the world. Sheikh Mansour from UAE owns the United's arch-rivals and the PL Champions Manchester City. Also, Qatar Sports Investments own another European powerhouse Paris Saint-German(PSG). But from Sky Sports reports, Manchester United has denied all the news regarding it
According to the news, the Saudi Prince is considering to bid for Manchester United and it is currently owned Glazer family since 2005. Glazer family bought Manchester United in 790 million pounds. Manchester United is presently valued at 3 billion pounds. Last year, Manchester United collected the revenue of around 590 million pounds. According to reports, Prince Mohammad needs to pay the sum of around 4 billion for the deals to go forward. Another big news here is that United's owner Avram Glazer is traveling to Saudi Arab in the Global Investment Conference. There are some chances that he might discuss it during his visit there.
Not going into politics, Saudi Prince has been in news for many controversies and is considered as a key figure of Trump's Middle East strategy. Manchester United fan may not like him for his involvement in controversies. Mourinho and United had frustrating transfer window and weren't able to sign the players he wanted. Thus the only positive here is the big money coming into the transfer market for United. PSG owned by Qatar Sports Investments is pouring huge money into the transfer market recently.
