Kaveh Solhekol answered fan questions about Manchester United, with Michael Carrick's future uncertain and the club sitting in the relegation zone, while also tackling ownership issues. He said the Glazer family is unlikely to sell unless a massive offer—around $5‑6 bn—materialises, and that any sale would likely follow the previous process using a merchant bank such as Raine Group. Potential buyers include Jim Ratcliffe and his company INEOS, though drag‑along rights could force them to sell their stakes as well.

No official indication of a sale is currently known. Solhekol also addressed speculation about a Middle Eastern takeover, noting a previous bid from Sheikh Jassim (Qatar) that fell through because the price was too high. He added that other billionaires may be watching but there is no confirmed interest.

He concluded that while the club’s on‑field troubles and managerial changes are pressing, the ownership picture remains stable for now, with the Glazers holding firm and no imminent sale expected.
