There would be a long line of serious buyers if we were up for sale. Form on the pitch is transient and can be changed pretty quickly by competent management installing the right people and the infrastructure issues are not so daunting as to put anyone off. Look at the Chelsea situation, all of the investors involved in bids for Chelsea knew that a squad rebuild was coming and either a new or massively renovated stadium was needed and they still were happy to go to 4bn plus. As much of a meme as we have become lately the Manchester United brand is still massive in a commercial sense and the type of people who would bid are the sort of alpha mentality types who will believe that they are the ones who can turn it all around.Would anyone want to buy us now though ( even a minority stake ) ? We're worth what, ~4bn pounds and on top of that we have a ton of debt , terrible squad and decaying stadium. Unless we go for like 1bn I dont see how any money man will want to touch us with a 10 foot pole ? Because we need a TON of money to fox the squad and the stadium
Right? And what does a minority stake change anyway?Haven't they already done that with the IPO? How much of Utd do they still own?
Would cost £5bn+, then the debt to be paid off, probably need £1bn spent on Old Trafford/a new stadium, and more bringing our facilities up to scratch. We are a bad purchase right now.Hopefully someone comes in and buys us.
