Man United could be heading towards a major ownership change, with the Glazer family reportedly placing the Premier League club up for sale.

Football finance expert Stefan Borson revealed on talkSPORT’s White and Jordan show that a sale process has already been established, although it has not been publicly announced.

Borson explained: “My understanding from somebody, a senior person in the game, told me that there is a process and that they are for sale,”.

The development comes after the family’s previous attempt to explore a sale in November 2022 ended with Sir Jim Ratcliffe acquiring a minority stake.

Ratcliffe completed his 27.7 per cent investment in February 2024, leaving the Glazers in control of the club.

Borson suggested the family could be taking a different approach this time but warned that they would not sell without receiving their desired valuation.

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

He added: “They (Glazers) are robust, and they will only go when their price is met.”

Borson believes Manchester United’s asking price could stand at approximately £5billion, with the family’s confidence reportedly supported by the club’s commercial strength.

United recorded £677.6million in revenue for the 2025 financial year, setting a new club record despite missing out on European football.

The club also reported an operating profit of £22.6million, reversing the previous year’s £18.4million loss, reports Talk Sports.

The Glazers have owned United since Malcolm Glazer completed his leveraged takeover in May 2005, a move that saddled the club with significant debt.

Supporters have repeatedly protested against the family’s ownership, renewing their demands for the Glazers to leave during Sunday’s match against Aston Villa.
