Manchester United could be back on the market for a cool £800 million. The Mirror says the Glazer family are ready to listen to bids for the Premiership champions less than three years after completing their controversial takeover. And that disclosure from within the world's biggest club has seen a flurry of activity in the City, with a number of interested parties ready to make known their interest in United. While revenue streams are humming along thanks to new sponsorship deals and the big Premiership TV deal, City analysts have revealed the Glazers are not making the returns they envisaged on their investment, and as a result are considering cutting their losses and selling up. Investment group Delta Two, working on behalf of the Qatar Government, are understood to be in the hunt. And the Dubai International Capital (DIC), the investment arm of Dubai's government, are likely to be interested after failing in their bid to buy Liverpool this year.
