The Glazer's time could soon be over.

Manchester United has been 'placed up for sale', according to football finance expert Stefan Borson revealing the news on talkSPORT.

The Glazers previously entertained a sale in November 2022, though it only ended with Sir Jim Ratcliffe acquiring a 27.7% stake that made him a minority owner in the club.

Borson made clear to talkSPORT that a process for a sale has been established, though it has not been made public.

Speaking to the radio show, Borson said: "My understanding from somebody, a senior person in the game, told me that there is a process and that they are for sale.

"You would question why they wouldn't make it public, although when they last made a process public, that of course ended with a slightly disappointing outcome (Ratcliffe's shares).

"They may be trying something different by not making it formal, but they are now accepting that now is the time."

Borson then added:  "They (Glazer's) are robust, and they will only go when their price is met.

"They believe this is a club that has such a robust brand that even if they are unsuccessful on the pitch,it has very little difference to the commercial viability and ability to generate revenue."

Borson thinks that the figure for a sale is approximately £5billion.
