Manchester United chief executive Richard Arnold is confident attempts by the Glazers to seek new investment or sell the club will help fund redevelopment at Old Trafford and Carrington, as well as helping to 'build a winning team'.
Arnold also insists United supporters will be at the heart of any takeover and he will be advising any prospective new investors of the value of engaging with fans.
The Glazer family have put the club on the market and their controversial 18-year reign as owners could come to an end. While they are open to new investment, there is a feeling the process is likely to lead to a full takeover at some point.
