Potentially big news for West Ham comes from Man United after big takeover
Potential big news for West Ham United emerges from Man United after big takeover.
West Ham and Manchester United have been closely linked with major takeovers over the past year.
And any new ownership by the Hammers and the Reds could have an intrinsic connection.
Man United have paid the price for a long time since they were sold by the Glazers.
And it has long been speculated that West Ham could be sold after the club’s shame clause expires under London Stadium’s agreement with the LLDC in March.
The deaths of co-owner David Gold and his daughter Jacqueline have also fueled speculation that West Ham may soon change hands.
Football financier Kieran Maguire told Hammers News earlier in the season that Daniel Kretinsky has no desire to take over West Ham outright.
The Red Devils are also believed to be involved in the West Ham takeover.
As reported last season, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is said to be interested in taking over West Ham before Manchester United enter the market.
It seems the Glazers have dashed all hopes of Ratcliffe being bought by West Ham when they put up for sale Man United when he confirmed his intention to bid for the Old Trafford club.
West Ham has long been thought of as likely to be taken over by Qatar.
The land around the London Stadium – including Queen Elizabeth Park – belongs to the Qataris.
And Ratcliffe’s Manchester United rival, Qatari tycoon Jassim bin Hamad al Thani, would have been of widespread interest to West Ham if his bid to buy the Red Devils failed.
Huge news for West Ham has emerged from Man United following a massive overnight acquisition.
Because according to the Daily Mail’s exclusive this morning, the Glazers will take Manchester United off the market until 2025.
And that leaves Sir Jim Ratcliffe and the Qataris empty-handed in their quest for a Premier League club.
“The Glazers will remove Manchester United from the market for failing to meet the expected asking price, according to a source with longstanding close ties to the American family.
.
.
“ the report read.
The logic to get United out of the market today, the source said, is that the Glazer family will try to sell the club by 2025 as they hope financial and ‘environmental’ factors will attract more more contractors.
But that may only push Cheikh Jassim and the Ineos team towards West Ham.
Although rivals Tottenham Hotspur could also be an option for them.
West Ham fans have a lot to cheer for at the moment.
And they were surprised by some of the club’s business during the summer transfer window.
But the club’s prospects could change in the long run under new owners with the wealth of Sheikh Jassim.
He is a member of the ruling Qatari royal family, with an estimated net worth of £275 billion.
