Manchester&nbsp;United&nbsp;said on Tuesday it was commencing a process to explore strategic alternatives, including a new investment or a potential sale, 17 years after the American Glazer family bought the English Premier League soccer club. The Glazer family is working with financial advisers on the process, which could lead to a partial sale of the Old Trafford club or investments including stadium and infrastructure redevelopment, the club said in a statement.

Manchester&nbsp;United&nbsp;fans have been clamouring for a change of ownership and the Glazers have been the target of intense criticism as the team have gone five years without winning a trophy. The last silverware they won was the Europa League and League Cup back in 2017. "As we seek to continue building on the club’s history of success, the board has authorized a thorough evaluation of strategic alternatives," Avram Glazer and Joel Glazer, executive co-chairmen and directors of&nbsp;United, said in the statement. "We will evaluate all options to ensure that we best serve our fans and that Manchester&nbsp;United&nbsp;maximizes the significant growth opportunities available to the club today and in the future," the statement said.

In August, British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe had expressed interest in buying&nbsp;United, Reuters reported. At the time, Elon Musk had also joked about planning to buy the club. Wealthy Asian tycoons, especially those from China, have been buying European teams in recent years including Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers and Italy's Inter Milan. However, football clubs have since been deemed unfavorable assets by China and any major overseas purchase would seem unlikely at the moment, said Mark Dreyer, Beijing-based author of "Sporting Superpower", a book about China's sports ambitions.

"It's almost impossible to see how any Chinese-related entity could justify a purchase of this magnitude in the current climate," he said. "... with China only just now facing up to the realities of COVID-19, which makes the entire economic environment that much more uncertain, no state body would approve this kind of deal." The owners are under pressure with&nbsp;United&nbsp;sitting fifth in the Premier League halfway through the season, which has been suspended because of the current Qatar World Cup.

Manchester&nbsp;United&nbsp;shares jumped as much as 20% after Sky News first reported on the sale process, giving the club a market capitalisation of $2.6 billion. The company was worth $2.5 billion at the close of U.S. trading on Tuesday. At its peak as a public company, it had a market capitalisation of $4.3 billion in 2018.

RONALDO LEAVES

Also on Tuesday, the club said that star striker Cristiano Ronaldo will leave with immediate effect, marking a bitter end to the Portugal captain's second spell at Old Trafford after he said he felt betrayed by the club. The Glazers bought the club for 790 million pounds ($939.07 million) in 2005 in a highly leveraged deal which has been criticised for loading debt onto the club. United&nbsp;has been listed on the New York Stock Exchange since 2012, when the Glazers sold 10% of their holding via the listing and have sold more shares since.

The Raine Group is acting as financial adviser and Latham &amp; Watkins LLP is the legal adviser to Manchester&nbsp;United. Rothschild and Co. is acting as financial adviser to the Glazer family shareholders.&nbsp;Among the fan protests against the Glazers was one in May 2021 that forced the postponement of a home match against Liverpool, one of the club's biggest rivals. It was the first Premier League match to be postponed because of a protest.

United&nbsp;and Liverpool were among a group of big clubs that said they wanted to establish a European Super League in April 2021 but then withdrew, partly because of objections from many fans in England. Liverpool are also "exploring a sale" according to club chairman Tom Werner. In May 2022, Chelsea Football Club was sold to a consortium led by an investment group fronted by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital for $3.2 billion (2.5 billion pounds).

United&nbsp;finished sixth last season in their worst Premier League campaign in terms of points earned, failing to qualify for the lucrative European Champions League competition. They won the last of their record 20 top-flight league titles in 2013, the year the great Alex Ferguson stepped down as manager after more than 26 years in charge. The club have hired Dutch manager Erik ten Hag from Ajax Amsterdam in a bid to turn around their fortunes.

Manchester United's American owners, the Glazer family, plans to sell club

The FIFA World Cup 2022 kicked off on November 20 after a lot of hype. This is the first time that it is being held in the Middle East. While there have been only three days since the commencement of the tournament, it has griped the football fans across the globe. In India, despite the national football teams still being far away from qualifying in the mega event, there are plenty of ardent fans across the nation. Recently, a video of fans, in Kerala, made heads turn as there were people donning Brazil and Argentina's jerseys and at war amid the action in Qatar WC.

Here's a video of the fans being engaged in a fist-fight while donning the jersey of their favourite sides:

The FIFA World Cup 2022 edition got underway in Qatar on November 20 (Sunday). While only a handful of games have gone by, the hype around the World Cup has caught everyone's attention. Even in India, while the national sides are far from qualifying for the mega event, the craze for football knows no boundaries. In Kochi, as many as 17 fans crossed boundaries to make their experience of watching the FIFA World Cup a memorable affair by buying a house, worth INR 2.3 million (INR 23 lakhs), to be able to watch the proceedings together.&nbsp;

Love for soccer has no boundaries!

PK Harris, one of the buyers of the house told ANI, “Because no match is enjoyable without loud cheering and fun. Most of the open spaces we used to screen were either sold or built on." Harris, who is a PWD contractor, revealed, "That’s when we came to know about the sale and pooled in money to buy the house."

It is to be noted that the group of ardent football fans are mostly supporting Argentina, Brazil, Portugal, and France. In this regard, Harris said, "The idea of investing in the property is to celebrate every world cup season as we did for the past 15 or more years, and for the coming generation.&nbsp;A 50-inch television and internet facility has been set up here. Everyone in the area is welcome to watch the match."

On Tuesday (November 22), the FIFA WC saw Lionel Messi-led Argentina open their campaign with a shocking 2-1 defeat at the hands of Saudi Arabia. Sharing what the atmosphere was like during the game, Harris stated, "The fun of teasing while the other person’s team losing and also cheering for our favourite team is the best part of the season,” said Harris. “It’s all friendly banter with each other." Two among the 17 friends are working abroad. Revealing their plans going ahead, Harris pointed out, "After the world cup season, we plan to construct a three-storey building. The first and second floors will be rented out to the needy to either set up a shop or anything, and the top floor will be dedicated space for screening the world cup in the coming years and setting up a sports club-like area for the coming generation."

On Thursday (November 24), Belgium and Croatia will square off in what will be their respective tournament openers in the FIFA World Cup 2022 edition, in Qatar. Both are placed in Group F also comprising Morroco and last edition's runners-up Croatia. Benig in a tough group, both the sides will hope for an impressive start but Belgium, who bowed out with a loss in the semi-finals in the 2018 edition, will start as favourites.&nbsp;

Belgium's star-studded line-up, comprising&nbsp;Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku, Real Madrid winger Eden Hazard, Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne and Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, will be the players to watch out for. The experienced line-up will test the Canadians, who have qualified for the FIFA WC for only the second time since 1986.&nbsp;

Ahead of the match, Canada's captain Atiba Hutchinson said on Tuesday (November 22), "I’ve already seen it sparking a lot of interest in younger players, 7, 8-year olds, some in my family, teammates, children. Just the interest that it’s brought to our country is really special to see. I’ve been with the national team a very long time and I never seen it get to this level.” Hutchinson added, "We want to put Canada on the map."

Belgium have lost to the Netherlands and Egypt recently, hence, they will not like to take any team lightly at such an initial stage of the tournament. However, they have never lost three in a row since 2014. Will they maintain that record?&nbsp;

The 2010 FIFA World Cup champions Spain will open their campaign in the ongoing edition, in Qatar, on Wednesday (November 23). The Spanish line-up have had a good run in the past. While they were semi-finalists in the Euro 2020, losing to eventual winners Italy, they also finished as&nbsp;runners-up in the most recent UEFA Nations League. Thus,&nbsp;Spanish football manager Luis Enrique has enough talent in the squad to choose from. The former champions will start as favourites versus Costa Rica.&nbsp;

On the other hand, Costa Rica coach Luis Fernando Suarez&nbsp;said prior to the game, "In my group I have different leaders. I can have a few of them so I can manage them, Suarez said at a press conference while naming Bryan Ruiz, Keylor Navas and Joel Campbell as the leaders of the team." In terms of head-to-head, La Roja lead Costa Rica 2-1. Even a draw for Costa Rica will give them a massive boast in a group where they will also face Germany and Japan. Meanwhile, anything less than a win will not be an ideal start for the Spanish line-up.

FIFA World Cup 2022 Broadcast TV and OTT-Live Streaming: When and where to watch Spain vs Costa Rica?

The FIFA World Cup 2022 edition is underway and producing enthralling action for football fans across the globe. On Tuesday (November 22), i.e. the third day of the competition, Lionel Messi-led Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia, 1-2, in their opening clash whereas defending champions France went past Australia 4-1 in their first game in the ongoing edition. The action continues on Wednesday (November 23) with plenty of games in store. In the first game of the day, Morocco will face last edition's runners-up Croatia.

For Croatia to go all the way, they will need a strong start. While they did manage a second-spot finish in 2018 edition, Croatia isn't being considered as one of the top contenders. This might just work in their favour, just like it did in 2018 in Russia. They had a smooth qualification to the mega event and even topped the Nations League group, ahead of France, and, hence, will start as favourites.&nbsp;

“Definitely, what we’ve been through in 2018 in Russia is unforgettable and indelible in my mind. Others can continue speaking about it but we need to put it aside and focus on what’s ahead,” Modric told a news conference. “Many players at the 2018 World Cup in Russia are not here, we have new players, new quality young players with fresh blood and energy. This is a new tournament and we have to look at it that way," he added.

They had a smooth qualification to the mega event and even topped the Nations League group, ahead of France, and, hence, will start as favourites. “Definitely, what we’ve been through in 2018 in Russia is unforgettable and indelible in my mind. Others can continue speaking about it but we need to put it aside and focus on what’s ahead,” Modric told a news conference. “Many players at the 2018 World Cup in Russia are not here, we have new players, new quality young players with fresh blood and energy. This is a new tournament and we have to look at it that way," he added. Also read: FIFA World Cup 2022, Day 3 Schedule – Matches, venues and live streaming-OTT, channel broadcast details!

FIFA World Cup 2022, Morocco vs Croatia, Broadcast TV and OTT-Live Streaming Day 4: When and where to watch

The action continues in FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar. In the second game of Wednesday (November 23), the 2014 winners Germany will lock horns with Japan. After Argentina's shocking loss at the hands of Saudi Arabia, Germans will be on their toes to start off in a clinical fashion. Germany and Japan are in a tough group, Group E, also comprising Spain and Costa Rica and, thus, a good start is vital for both the teams in order to gain momentum from the word go.&nbsp;

Germany, without a doubt, will start as favourites and will rely on&nbsp;star players such as Jamal Musiala, Kai Havertz, Serge Gnabry, Joshua Kimmich, and veteran goalkeeper and captain Manuel Neuer. The former champions will, however, not take the opposition lightly as they have always punched above their weight and are more than capable of pulling off an upset. In terms of head-to-head record, Germans remain undefeated versus Japan, winning twice.

The FIFA World Cup 2022 edition has started off with a bang. While a lot of off-field news are making the headlines from time to time, the action on the ground has been enthralling as well. After Monday (November 21) saw three fixtures being held -- with England thrashing Iran, Netherlands going past Senegal and USA-Wales tie ending in a 1-1 stalemate -- Argentina will square off with Saudi Arabia in Group C's first game.&nbsp;

Talking about Argentina, all eyes will be on Lionel Messi. Messi will enter the ground and achieve a major feat of becoming the first from his country to play as many as five separate editions of the World Cup. Argentina will be desperate to start off with a bang against a side whose best performance was a Round of 16 appearance in the 1994 edition.

The action continues in the ongoing FIFA World Cup 2022 edition, in Qatar, on Tuesday (November 22) with as many as three games on the cards. Lionel Messi will be seen in action as Argentina will open their campaign versus Saudi Arabia, in Group C, at the Lusail Stadium, Qatar. All eyes will be on superstar Messi as the 35-year-old will aim to start off well in what is most likely to be his last World Cup appearance.

As Messi will step on to the ground, the Argentinian will&nbsp;become the first player from his country to feature&nbsp;in as many as five separate World Cups. Earlier, both Diego Maradona and Javier Mascherano had appeared&nbsp;in four world cups each.&nbsp;

FIFA World Cup: Lionel Messi to achieve major milestone in Argentina's opener vs Saudi Arabia

England, who are gunning for their second World Cup title, have the most valuable squad in Qatar with Jude Bellingham topping a list of over 800 players, a study has found. Here is a look at how the other major sides compare at the tournament:

TRANSFER VALUE

According to a study conducted by Swiss research group CIES Football Observatory, England's 26-man squad is worth just under 1.5 billion euros ($1.54 billion) in transfer value, with 19-year-old Bellingham valued at 202 million euros. The Borussia Dortmund player enhanced his reputation as one of the world's top young players with a superb goal in England's 6-2 victory over Iran in their tournament opener.

Brazil are second on the list with a transfer value of 1.45 billion euros. Real Madrid forward Vinicius Jr. was their most valuable player at 200 million euros. France were third with an estimated transfer value of 1.34 billion for their squad. Paris St Germain forward Kylian Mbappe was their top player with a value of 185 million euros.

The top three were followed by Spain (1.2 billion euros), Portugal (1.15 billion euros) and Germany (1.02 billion euros). The statistical technique used in the study to build the model was multiple linear regression, with fees paid by clubs as an independent variable.

The sample comprises more than 2,000 transactions of players transferred from clubs in the five major European leagues during the period July, 2012 to November, 2021. The overall value of all the squads at the World Cup was put at 15 billion euros.

INSURABLE VALUE

According to analysis by Lloyd's of London -- backed by the Centre for Economics and Business Research -- teams were ranked based on the collective insurable value of their players.

England's squad topped the list with an estimated insurable value of 3.17 billion pounds ($3.74 billion). They edged out France (2.66 billion pounds) and Brazil (2.56 billion pounds) to claim top spot. Lloyd's said the assessment of insurable value comprises a variety of metrics like wages, sponsorship, age and on-field positions.

Using this methodology to play out the tournament in full, Lloyd's predicted that England -- champions in 1966 -- will finish top of Group B in Qatar and seal knockout wins over Senegal, France, Spain and Brazil. Bellingham was rated the most insurable player, followed by Mbappe and Vinicius Jr.

England adjudged FIFA World Cup's most valuable team, claims a study

FIFA has rejected the&nbsp;Belgium&nbsp;soccer team's away strip because of the word "Love" in the collar, a spokesperson for the Red Devils said on Monday. The design of the shirt, which includes a rainbow-coloured trim, was inspired by the fireworks of Belgian's famous music festival Tomorrowland and stands for diversity, equality and inclusivity. However,&nbsp;Belgium&nbsp;spokesperson Stefan Van Loock said FIFA was rejecting the shirt not because of the colours, which are typically linked to LGBTQ+, but because of the commercial link to Tomorrowland.

The festival's logo is incorporated in the "o" of "Love". Belgium's warm-up shirt was also rejected by FIFA because of its references to Tomorrowland, he said. FIFA is allowing&nbsp;Belgium&nbsp;to play with the away shirts if the word "Love" on the etiquette is taped over but Van Loock said the Red Devils will play the first three games in their main red shirt regardless. The away shirts are a new design and were introduced in September. Since then,&nbsp;Belgium&nbsp;played in them in several UEFA Nations League games.

The rejection comes after FIFA threatened to issue yellow cards to any player wearing the multi-coloured 'OneLove' armband which was introduced to support diversity and inclusion. The Belgian Football Association said earlier on Monday that its captain Eden Hazard will not play wearing the armband.

Qatar World Cup: FIFA rejects Belgium's away shirts due to word 'Love'

The&nbsp;Golden&nbsp;State&nbsp;Warriors&nbsp;were&nbsp;sued&nbsp;on Monday by an&nbsp;FTX&nbsp;customer who accused the reigning National Basketball Association&nbsp;champions of fraudulently promoting the now-bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange.

Elliott Lam, a Canadian citizen and Hong Kong resident, filed his proposed class-action lawsuit in San Francisco federal court on behalf of "thousands, if not millions" of people outside the United&nbsp;States who traded on&nbsp;FTX's platform. Other defendants include Sam Bankman-Fried, who founded&nbsp;FTX, and Caroline Ellison, who led Bankman-Fried's trading firm Alameda Research.

The&nbsp;Warriors&nbsp;last December had named&nbsp;FTX&nbsp;its official cryptocurrency platform, in what it called a first-of-its-kind cryptocurrency partnership in professional sports. Lam accused the defendants of falsely representing that&nbsp;FTX&nbsp;was a "viable and safe way to invest in crypto," in order to deceive people into investing there.

The lawsuit seeks damages under California consumer laws for customers outside the United&nbsp;States with&nbsp;FTX&nbsp;yield-bearing accounts. Lam said he lost $750,000 in his account. A&nbsp;Warriors&nbsp;spokeswoman said the team does not discuss pending legal matters. Lam's lawyers did not immediately respond to requests for additional comment.

The&nbsp;Warriors&nbsp;are also a defendant in a Nov. 16 lawsuit in Miami by U.S.-based&nbsp;FTX&nbsp;customers seeking damages from celebrity endorsers like&nbsp;Warriors&nbsp;guard Stephen Curry, quarterback Tom Brady, comedian Larry David and tennis player Naomi Osaka.

Last week, the&nbsp;Warriors&nbsp;paused promotions related to&nbsp;FTX, according to published reports. Another&nbsp;NBA&nbsp;team, the Miami Heat, on Nov. 11 said it would drop the&nbsp;FTX&nbsp;name from its arena and seek a new naming sponsor. FTX&nbsp;filed for Chapter 11 protection on the same day. The Heat is not a defendant in the Miami lawsuit.
