Despite a possible acquisition of the club, it is allegedly still business as usual at Man United. With preparations for the summer transfer window. As Erik ten Hag works to retain his top players, discussions on contract extensions for Marcus Rashford, Luke Shaw, David De Gea, Alejandro Garnacho, and Diogo Dalot are currently taking place.
“Commending a process to seek strategic alternatives” the Glazer family announced for the club. Man United placed on the market. The Raine Group set a “soft deadline” for proposals last Friday. This procedure moved forward last week.
At this time, only two plans have been publicly announced. The first of which was made by the Ineos group, a business venture owned by British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe. The second from Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani. This is perhaps the more eye-catching for Man United with the bid likely to have support from the wealthy state of Qatar.

Man United on Qatari takeover
This hasn’t affected the regular operations at United, with club sources maintaining a posture of “business as usual.” Officials at the club are currently anticipating the January transfer window as Ten Hag aims to strengthen his team in preparation for a stronger run at the Premier League championship next season.
Although the team tries to hold onto its finest players, Man United are also working on additions. The contracts of all five players Rashford, Garnacho, Shaw, De Gea, and Dalot—expire in the next 18 months, therefore negotiations for new contracts are now continuing.
Yet, even if a takeover takes place before the summer, Man United will not make any extravagant purchases. Several employees at Old Trafford worry that the team would soon violate financial fair play rules. Which is why they need to cut back on spending.
