The global pandemic that is the coronavirus has seen the stock market crash in general but, even so, it’s a massive blow to the club.
United had a market value of over $3b just after Christmas but now, in the wake of the current crisis threatening the world, they’re valued at $2b instead.
And what that means for the Glazers, and the possibility of them selling up, is something only time will tell.
They were ready to slap an eyewatering £3b price tag on the club amid interest from a Saudi Arabian consortium.
That would represent a huge profit for the Americans, who purchased the club for £790m in controversial circumstances back in 2005.
