United Deny Club Sale : - Hyltz'. - 23-01-2011
Manchester United have today denied any truth in reports that talks with Qatar Holding were taking place and that a potential offer for the sale of the club of around £1.5Billion. had been put forward. (LINK)
Qatar Holdings, an indirect subsidiary of Qatar Investments, is run by Sheik Hamad bin Jassem bin Jabr Al Thani the Prime Minister of Qatar, present holders of the Asian Cup Finals. It was he who also fronted Qataar's successful bid for the 2022 World Cup Finals.
Claims that the bid had been rejected by the club owners, as they were seeking £2Billion, were rejected by the American based Glazer Family, who bought the club in 2005 for £790million.
Manchester United, while denying the reports, again insisted that the club was not for sale. A spokesman said " There has been no approach of any kind to buy the club and one wouldn't be welcome anyway because it is not for sale."
