Background

In a world where $ is king, Manchester United is lagging behind. With the club having to take on a large loan for the takeover by the Glazers, it left little buying power to improve the squad. Although the Financial Fair Play rules comes into effect soon, United just don't have the money to compete with teams like Manchester City and Paris Saint Germain in the transfer market.

A group of investors from South Africa had enough of rivals City getting the cream of the crop. It's time for change. After a year of fundraising, investment liquidating and money moving they finally have enough to rescue their beloved club frm the Glazer tyranny. It's time for Manchester united to move forward.

The first order of business is housekeeping. Out with the old and in with the new. The dead weight will no longer suck the club's finances dry. Sir Alex Ferguson had a vision for the club. To be the best by growing the best. That vision will be implemented. Talented youth players will only want to play for one club - Manchester United.

With a balanced mix of the best players and talented youth players, the Red Devils will once again dominate the world of football.
