According to The SunManchester United could soon change hands, with an Emirati consortium interested in buying the club. And to facilitate the acceptance of this project by supporters, the group would consider calling on David Beckham, icon of the Red Devils in the 1990s and early 2000s.
The idea is simple: associate a legendary name with a revival operation to restore confidence to a club in free fall, both sportingly and financially. Beckham could become one of the faces of the project, intervening in the club's communication and international development, while embodying the history and prestige of Manchester United.
Other former glories like Wayne Rooney or Eric Cantona could also be approached to support the initiative. The consortium's objective is clear: to link the glorious past to the ambitious future, reassure fans and stabilize the club's financial situation.
In a context where Manchester United is struggling to regain its former glory, the presence of these historical icons could transform a simple takeover into a true symbol of rebirth for the Red Devils.
At the time of writing, Manchester is 12th in the Premier League, already far from the championship leaders.
