‘Fresh start’ - Owen Hargreaves sends Glazer family a Manchester United takeover message

manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Owen Hargreaves says the Glazers are not under any obligation to sell Manchester United but believes a 'fresh start' is what the fans deserve.

The takeover process is now into its eighth month with little clarity over how it will conclude. Both Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani and Sir Jim Ratcliffe remain in the race but there are fears the current owners may decide not to sell.

Countless anti-Glazers protests and statements from fan groups in recent years have called for the US family to leave the club entirely after an 18-year reign.

TNT Sports pundit Owen Hargreaves says the Glazers have shown a thick skin amid the backlash, having seemingly wavered little in their approach to club operations.
