With the Glazer family deciding to put Manchester United up for sale, there have been numerous stories about potential buyers.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe has made it clear he would be interested in taking over the Old Trafford side, and we have more recently seen rumours of Qatar getting involved.
That could have potentially included QSI, a subsidiary of the sovereign fund Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), who own Paris Saint-Germain, but a report from Goal in France makes it clear the shareholding organisation have ‘no intention’ of moving for Manchester United.
Therefore, if any offer ‘were to be made’ for Manchester United or ‘another club’, it could come from QIA, ‘recently listed on the stock exchange’ and chaired by Mohammed ben Abderrahmane Al-Thani, who is himself a ‘member of the royal family’.
Now, whether they do come forward in the near future remains to be seen, but it’s clear QSI as an organisation themselves won’t be involved in anything, and any offer would seemingly come from the sovereign fund directly.
