Man Utd supporters buoyed as Glazer snapped in Saudi Arabia

Manchester United owner Avram Glazer has been pictured with in Saudi Arabia amid claims over a takeover of the club.

It was reported last month that Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman was willing to offer £4billion to buy United from the Glazers.

However, Glazer was in the country to meet with the Saudi minister of parliamentary affairs, Dr Mohammed Abo Sak, whose son previously worked for United longest running commercial partenr, Saudi Telecom.

This hasn't stopped some United fans from hoping Glazer was also in the Arab nation to discuss a potential sale of the club.

The American owners have been unpopular amongst a large section of United fans since they completed their majority takeover in 2005.
