Has the time has come for supporters to buy the club back from the Glazer family?
Financier Keith Harris has been approached by investors to broker a takeover of Manchester United.
Manchester United’s Supporters’ Trust has held meetings with influential club supporters
interested in exploring the options for a change of ownership.
Harris, the head of merchant bank Seymour Pierce, has been involved in four Premier League club takeovers
and has long been critical of United’s debt that earlier in January was recorded at £716m.
“You sense that the momentum is gathering and this time these fans truly mean it,
I think they are saying that enough is enough,
there is too much gearing on this football club and it is unhealthy.”
Harris told BBC Sport.
