Fans OF 1 Professional Sports Team Desire Musk To Fall Bid TO GET Twitter AND PURCHASE Their Team Instead

Fans of one professional sports team are urging entrepreneur Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, to drop his quest to buy Twitter for a staggering $43 billion and to instead buy their team.

“Manchester United fans are pleading with Tesla owner Elon Musk to buy the club from the Glazer family,” the Manchester Evening News reported. “The drive to bring the richest man on the planet started with talkSPORT host and United fan Andy Goldstein responding to a tweet from Musk about his efforts to buy Twitter.”

Goldstein reportedly responded to a tweet from Musk about his offer to buy Twitter, writing: “Elon, Elon. Retract your offer. Buy Man United.”

“Spend £2bn on the best players in the world,” Goldstein added. “Win everything and then boast about it on Twitter.”

The Daily Mail noted that the news comes as dozens of Manchester United fans have “descended on the club’s Carrington training ground to protest against the Glazer family’s ownership, amid yet another season of failure on the pitch.”

“Banners reading ‘Glazers out’ and ‘Disgrace – Not fit to wear the shirt’ were held up outside the gates to the complex, with United beefing up security in anticipation and calling in police,” the report added. “The demonstration on Friday lunchtime appears to be a precursor to a larger anti-Glazer protest planned for Old Trafford ahead of the Premier League match with Norwich City on Saturday.”

Various reports, mostly in British publications, highlighted numerous tweets that fans have sent to Musk asking him to buy the team.
