Finally, the Glazer House has also accepted to give up ownership of Manchester United and is currently selling the Old Trafford team . The media confirmed that there are many individuals and organizations who want to become the new owners of the Red Devils. Among them, the most notable is the Qatar Sports Investments group – who also owns Paris Saint-Germain.
According to marketing expert Chris Woerts, if Qatar owners take over Man Utd , they will build a team of their own and coach Erik Ten Hag will 100% be replaced by another captain. Talking to Today Inside, the former Marketing Director of the Dutch League shared (quoted by Sports Witness):
Woerts is worried about Ten Hag.
“There’s a big battle going on between the Qatari side and Jim Ratcliffe.”
“If the Qataris take over, you will be in the same situation as with Manchester City at that time.”
“They have their own management, their own coach and their own commercial director. Then there will really be a team of their own.”
“Ten Hag has only been in office for six months. It is 100% certain that the Qataris will put their people in that position.”
Ex-Man Utd boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer finally responds to rumours he supported Liverpool
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer became a club legend at Manchester United thanks to his exploits as a player, but before joining the Red Devils, he has been rumoured to have supported rivals Liverpool
Former Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has finally admitted he grew up as a Liverpool supporter.
Solskjaer spent 11 years at Old Trafford as a player, winning six Premier League titles, two FA Cups and the Champions League. He famously scored the winner as United claimed a comeback victory over Bayern Munich in the latter competition in 1999.
The Norwegian returned to the Red Devils in 2018 for a three-year spell as manager, guiding them to the Europa League final in 2021. He was sacked after a miserable start to last season though and has now risked the wrath of United fans by revealing his childhood love for Liverpool.
The Reds are one of United’s biggest rivals and while he is regarded as a club legend in Manchester, it was Liverpool who Solskjaer grew up supporting. He has revealed that the strength of the Liverpool team when he was growing up led to him following them.
“I must have been environmentally damaged because when you follow football, we had Match of the Day on every Saturday in Norway and of course, Liverpool were the better team in the 80s,” Solskjaer told James Richardson’s Kings of Europe podcast.
“They had Kenny Dalglish, Ian Rush and all of those, so yes I followed Liverpool. I was one of the supporters who followed because they won everything, Hard enough to say as a Man United player but they were the better team in the 80s.”

Solskjaer’s revelation marks a U-turn from seven years ago when he refused to give a hint about the truthfulness of the reports that he supported Liverpool. His only admission back in 2016 was that he ‘bleeds red’.
“You learn as long as you live, that’s the only answer I can give you. I never confirm that one! I’m a Manchester United fan through and through. I bleed red,” he told FourFourTwo at the time.
In his interview with the Kings of Europe podcast, Solskjaer also opened up on his preparations for his contribution to United’s famous Champions League win 24 years ago.
