Manchester United takeover bombshell: ‘Formal approach made’ as David Beckham expected to play key role Major development in Manchester United’s takeover drama... https://thedailybriefing.io/p/manchester-united-takeover-bombshell-david-beckham-involved UAE are serious about the Manchester United takeover as the situation continues to develop behind the scenes. I covered a report last week about how a UAE-based consortium flew to London to meet Glazers officials regarding an incredible takeover of the club. There has now been an update on the situation with club legend David Beckham very much involved.. UAE consortium make fresh move with Beckham expected to play key role David Beckham is set to play a key role to arrange second round of talks between Manchester United and UAE-based consortium. That is according to an update from reliable insider Indy Kaila who has been covering the story through his sources inside Manchester United. Indy was the one who broke the story about the consortium flying to London to meet the Glazers last week. As per his latest update, the initial talks were rejected by the Glazers, who have had a strict stance regarding selling the club. However, a formal approach was made ‘in the last 24 hours’. The Gulf-based investors are very serious and believe talks can be restarted with the club icon Beckham expected to play a role to get talks started. Taking to X, Indy Kaila reported: “According to our sources: A consortium based in the United Arab Emirates 🇦🇪 initial talks has been rejected by Manchester United. Formal approach made in the last 24 hours. “They believe talks can be restarted. David Beckham could be very key 🔐 to get talks started. UAE are serious.” David Beckham’s influence and why his involvement could be key David Beckham’s potential involvement could prove to be a game-changer in Manchester United’s ownership saga. Few figures in world football possess the kind of global pull, respect, and connections that Beckham commands, both within the game and beyond it. His standing as a former United icon, combined with his successful business ventures and various ambassadorial roles, positions him as the ideal bridge between the Glazers and the UAE-based consortium. Beckham has long maintained a cordial relationship with key decision-makers at Old Trafford, while also enjoying close ties with investors and sporting executives across the Middle East through his commercial and football ventures. Beckham’s influence could help restart talks that initially stalled. His potential to open doors, smooth tensions, and lend legitimacy to discussions makes him a valuable intermediary figure in the process. If he can use his connections to reignite dialogue between the two parties, Beckham could play a crucial behind-the-scenes role in steering Manchester United toward one of the most significant ownership shake-ups in recent years.

Scored and assisted at Parc de Princes as Strasbourg beating PSG 3-2, very entertaining game. He became a super solid player, I am surprised. We could use him in the current team for sure. (he also became Belgian NT member) Chilwell playing very good aswell. Their new striker, Joaqin Panichelli scored a brace, he has 7 goals in 8 league games, perhaps we signed the wrong guy with Emegha?

Appartently we are riviling city for Elliot Anderson? Interesting if true. That means we will sell Lavia? As Lavia is really amazing when fit but he is eternially injured.

Khan said, given Russian teams are banned from competing in international sport because of the attack on Ukraine, a similar rule should apply to Israeli teams because a UN commission has found that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza. 'The Lobby' after distributing a few brown envelopes will get this overturned

fucking Starmer........ Police commissioner calls for review of Maccabi Tel Aviv fans’ ban from UK match after PM’s criticism – politics live The Labour West Midlands police and crime commissioner said review should determine if ban is ‘appropriate, necessary, justified, reasonable’ https://www.theguardian.com/politics/live/2025/oct/17/keir-starmer-uk-politics-latest-news-updates-maccabi-tel-aviv-fans-banned breaking: In an interview with Newnight last night, Ayoub Khan, MP for Birmingham Perry Barr who has welcomed the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans attending the match (and who campaigned get the whole event cancelled, or at least relocated or held behind closed doors – see 8.46am), claimed that Maccabi supporters were “violent fans”, on the basis of what happened in Amsterdam last year. But he said safety was only one reason why he did not want them in the city. Khan said, given Russian teams are banned from competing in international sport because of the attack on Ukraine, a similar rule should apply to Israeli teams because a UN commission has found that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza.

Cole Palmer out for another six weeks for Chelsea https://www.sportingnews.com/uk/football/news/cole-palmer-out-another-six-weeks-Chelsea/02dd1dfe416b47cce9709bd8 Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has revealed Cole Palmer will be out for another six weeks with injury. The 23 year old has been struggling for some time with a groin injury that has left him sidelined. Palmer's last appeared in their 2-1 loss to Manchester United at Old Trafford on September 20, that saw two red card dismissals. He hardly made an impact though, after limping off 20 minutes in. Maresca had previously stated the club were hopeful for a November return for the winger, however he has retracted that statement. Speaking to the media ahead of their clash with Nottingham Forest, the Italian said: "I was wrong. Unfortunately, he has to be out probably six more weeks." "We are trying just to protect Cole as much as we can and the most important thing is that when he comes back, he is fully fit." The Chelsea boss was asked whether or not they've found the real injury issue, which he confirmed they had, and said Palmer won't need surgery. "The medical staff are not magicians" "You probably need six weeks. We hope that six weeks is enough, but it's a problem we need to see step-by-step, week after week." Maresca gave some positive reinforcement however, saying that Palmer is doing well and is relaxed as he recovers.
