Man United’s stock market value has rocketed £450m in the last month as investors are excited by the the team’s return to form and bet on a takeover, after Sir Jim Radcliffe said he was interested in buying his boyhood club

Exciting transfers, success on the pitch and investors hoping for a takeover have added £450m to Manchester United’s value in a month.

The club’s shares, quoted on the New York Stock Exchange, have seen their price rise steadily after a sharp decline at the end of last season, which saw United record their worst finish in the Premier League.

Then, the club slipped to seventh place, recording just 57 points. However, after a shaky start, which saw the Red Devils lose at home to Brighton, before being thrashed at Brentford, their performances and prospects have brightened under new manager Erik Ten Hag.
