Elon Musk has tweeted that he is buying Manchester United, telling his followers: “Ur welcome.”
The Tesla and SpaceX tycoon has a history of joke announcements and claims about his business dealings that do not pan out, so it is unclear how serious he is.
Shares in Manchester United are publicly traded on the stock market, but the American Glazer family reportedly retain a controlling share.
