'Wake up' - Manchester United fans make fresh Glazers demand amid possible Liverpool FC sale

Manchester United fans have once again called for the Glazers to sell the club after news broke that Liverpool have reportedly been put up for sale by Fenway Sports Group (FSG).

In August, around 10,000 supporters protested against the Glazers before United's 2-1 victory over Liverpool, where fans voiced their discontent with the club's American owners.

The chants of 'Glazers Out' have been a constant backdrop to United games recently, with no sign of the fan unrest over the American owners disappearing anytime soon. The supporters have been keen to ensure that the club's signing of Antony from Ajax this summer did not distract from the wider problems they've faced.

The Athletic have now claimed that Liverpool have been put up for sale by FSG, as the club's owners look to invite offers from interested parties. The American organisation, principally owned by John W. Henry, could now possibly oversee another takeover of a major Premier League side following the Todd Boehly-led purchase of Chelsea.

United supporters have been begging the Glazer family to relinquish control of their club, with the news of British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe's potential interest stirring up excitement among fans. Former captain Gary Neville has been very vocal in his criticism of the club's American owners, as pressure continues to mount for a sale to be made.

Following reports of FSG putting Liverpool up for sale, United fans have reignited their commitment to the cause, taking to social media to demand the Glazers sell United.
