According to the Athletic, Sheikh Jassim, one of the bidders for Manchester United, has criticized the Glazer family for their management of the club.
The Glazers, who currently own United, are considering offers from Sheikh Jassim and Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the founder of Ineos. The American family had previously expressed their intention to sell by initiating a strategic review in November, but the bidding process has been prolonged.
Recent reports suggest that Sheikh Jassim’s bid, which includes a full acquisition of the club, is currently the most likely to be accepted. The Qataris have expressed their eagerness to finalize the deal, particularly with the summer transfer window now open.
Over the years, the Glazer family’s ownership of Man United has faced criticism from the club’s supporters, as significant debts have been accumulated under their stewardship.

According to a report from The Athletic, Sheikh Jassim has voiced his discontent with the Glazers’ ownership, stating that they have “under-invested” in the club.
It has been no secret that Glazers have put in zero investment into the club from their own pockets. Erik ten Hag is also suffering from a lack of funds due to the ongoing takeover issue.
However, over the years, the Glazers have built a reputation for not getting involved in club-related activities and their lack of connection with the fans.
