David Beckham hasadmittedhe would love to feature in some form if a takeover goes ahead atManchester United.
The former Red Devils star believes it is high time the Glazers left the Old Trafford club having lost the fɑɴȿ.
Beckham reckonsMan Unitedcould do with all-round investment right now if they are to return to the pinnacle of English and European football.
The uncertainty over the club’s ownership has gone on for eight months, and it remains to be seen whether a takeover would happen.
Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani and Jim Ratcliffe are both in the race to buyMan United, and while Beckham has a lot on his hands right now, the former midfielder is open to having a role if new owners arrive.
“I have a lot going on here at the moment and my focus has purely been on Miami and everything that goes on in my business,” hetold The Athleticwhen asked if he might like to feature in some capacity under new owners.
“But I haven’t been approached and I suppose any involvement withManchester Unitedwould mean the world to me, going forward. But who knows? We’ll see what happens in the next few weeks or months.
“Hopefully, a decision gets made and if I’m involved in any way… if not, I’ll be a United fan and just do what all the other fɑɴȿ are doing — turn up and watch our team.”
The Inter Miami co-owner has proven himself to be a brilliant football administrator, recently snapping up Lionel Messi for the Major League Soccer club.
TheMan Unitedacademy graduate loves his old club a lot and will not hesitate to return if called upon by the would-be new owners.
However, a takeover is no longer expected this summer and there are doubts over whether the Glazers are indeed looking to sell their club.
