The world's richest man, Elon Musk has expressed interest in buying Man United, fans react.

Manchester United takeover talks have received major interest from one of the richest people in the world, Elon Musk. The latest reports confirm that the world's richest man is interested in acquiring Manchester United as he expands his business reach beyond tech into the sporting industry.

Prior to the Glazers' announcement of their decision to sell Manchester United, Elon Musk has previously teased about acquiring the Manchester club following the struggles last season. But it seems he is now ready to take the bold steps of buying the football club from the Glazers family.

Elon Musk has been tied to sports for several years with news about him making surprise appearances around the interest making headlines whenever he does. He recently acquired the social media platform, Twitter which is a dominant space for football conversation amongst fans, pundits, and lovers of the game.

Musk is currently exploring the 5 billion euros asking price for Manchester United set by the selling company, the Raine Group who facilitated the Chelsea FC sale in the summer for about 3 billion euros. Elon Musk's interest in acquiring Manchester United is already a hot topic amongst United fans.

How are fans taking Elon Musk takeover talks?

For years the Red Devils fans have been clamoring for a change of ownership and look set to have their wish granted as the takeover talks enter a crucial stage. News of Elon Musk's bid isn't getting much support from United fans, who worry over his unpredictable actions when it comes to ownership. They believe his lack of strong affiliation with the sport will be a danger to his commitment in the future.
