Two years ago, Manchester United seemed destined for a new era. Sheikh Jassim wanted a full Qatari takeover. Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS pushed for a minority stake. In the end, INEOS won—and took control of football operations.
But since then, results have collapsed. Erik ten Hag was sacked despite back-to-back trophy-winning seasons. Ruben Amorim, brought in to steady the ship, now holds just a 40% win rate after 50 games—the worst since Frank O’Farrell in the 1970s.
The atmosphere at Old Trafford is toxic. INEOS and the Glazers are blamed for making things worse. Instead of clarity, fans see chaos. The chants of “Glazers OUT” grow louder with every match.
Saudi takeover incoming?
Now Turki Al-Sheikh has dropped a bombshell on X: a new investor is in “advanced talks” to buy into United. Full takeover or minority stake? Still unclear. But one thing is certain—the Red Devils could be heading for yet another seismic shift.
