A partial sale has moved closer at Old Trafford and the days ahead could be pivotal. Who and how will United's fate be decided in key vote?
’s board is set to meet this week after British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe moved closer to securing a minority stake in the club. The 12-strong board needs to vote on selling a 25 per cent stake to Ratcliffe, but a deal must first be finalised with the owners, the Glazer family, after Sheikh Jassim’s Qatari group claimed to have withdrawn from the race.
Who are the 12 who can decide United’s fate? United’s board of directors is led by co-chairmen Joel and Avram Glazer, the two brothers who assumed control at Old Trafford in April 2006 after former owner Malcolm Glazer, their father, suffered a stroke. Advertisement Joel is the member of the family most involved in day-to-day operations, with sign-off on major decisions, and has the largest stake of any of the Glazer siblings at 19 per cent.
