- Story Text:Disgruntled Manchester United fans clashed with police as they protested against the club’s owners ahead of their Premier League match against Liverpool on Monday (August 22) night.
The American Glazer family are under pressure with United sitting bottom of the league after two defeats to start the season.
The Glazers have been the target of intense criticism for their failure to invest in the team, who have not won a trophy in five years.
British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe added to the uncertainty around the club’s future earlier this week, telling The Times he would be a “potential buyer†if it were for sale.
