Glazer starts selling off the family silver
John Duncan in Florida
Sunday December 11, 2005
The Observer
Malcolm Glazer is close to selling his non-sporting interests and could have
a cash pile of $80 million (￡56m) to spend on the rebuilding of Manchester
United if the sale of his shares in Omega Proteins goes through in the next
few weeks.
葛胖據說要開始出售他非關體育事業的投資項目。
打算籌措八千萬美金做為球隊的重建資金。
But the move could spark fears that Glazer is liquidating family assets to
support ￡800m worth of debt linked to his acquisition of Manchester United
this year. The club's value has been knocked by its shock eviction from the
Champions League last week when it lost to Benfica; it has therefore also
lost vital income this season and next from high-profile European games.
但這也讓人有些恐慌，因為這表示他正將自己的私人財產投入曼聯。
But a spokesman for the Glazer family in Florida said: 'They remain extremely
comfortable with the level of indebtedness at the club.' He declined to
comment on speculation that US hedge funds, which have lent ￡275m, could
end up controlling United if its fortunes failed to pick up.
發言人表示目前對負債情況感到樂觀，
但卻不願對高達兩億七千五百萬英鎊的高利貸做說明，
這筆爛帳如果不解決，曼聯將被迫脫手。
