According to goal.com theyl b no takeover at united as it's against FIFA rules for the QUATAR royal family to buy united as they own PSG ,,acceding to goal they could only buy 49per cent of man u! So looks like were stuck with the yanks

 


The rules state that no individual can own a controlling share in 2 clubs in the same regional association (UEFA). The Qatari linked to United isn't the same Qatari who owns PSG and so the point is moot.

There is more than one person in Qatar, you do know that don't you?!

That being said, it's all paper talk and a bid won't come - at least while the club is so over-valued.


Many thanks for confirming that for me.


Doesnt abramovich own a russian club or have something to do with 1 how did he get around that i not sure of the facts. was cska and didnt they play cheski in europe at the time. have the rules changed? i have no idea how all this works {Ed002's Note - Mr Abramovic does not own a Russian club, For about a year a company he owned sponsored CSKA, and that is fine - it is no different to FlyBe sponsoring clubs, or Adidas sponsoring several clubs.}


Seriously please do your homework as far as I can tell ya need to own 31 per cent of a football club before ya make a formal bid to own it outright so the 49 ya say is a little too large. Also there is more than one billionaire in middle east that could be making a bid. Personally I don't think it will happen but wouldn't he upset if it did.

There is always the kuwaiti royal family? lol


Even if this is true surely they would find an 'associate' to co own the club but they would really own the club.
