Renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano has claimed that parties involved in the Manchester United takeover have grown nervous, adding that although the sale has not yet been finalized, things are happening behind the scenes.
Last November, Manchester United’s owners, the Glazers, revealed that they were open to selling the club.
