The Story in 60 Seconds

Manchester United's majority owners, the Glazer family, are reportedly angry with Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS over their management of the club's football operations. Despite heavy investment, United have suffered a poor start to the 2026/27 campaign under permanent head coach Michael Carrick, winning just two of their opening 12 matches across all competitions.

A report from the Daily Mail indicates that the Glazers consider the current situation a travesty and may contemplate selling the club in the future. A clause in their agreement reportedly allows the Glazers to force out Ratcliffe's minority stake if they secure a full sale to a third party.
