Manchester United fans have been left delighted after a report that Apple is considering buying their club for £5.8billion.

The Premier League football club has been put up for sale by its owners, the Glazer family, potentially sparking a bidding war among some of the world's richest people.

Reports have emerged today in the Daily Star suggesting that Apple, the technology company with an annual turnover of £326billion, could lodge a bid to takeover the club.

Supporters of the Red Devils have been reacting with glee at the news, which if it comes to pass, would see it become by far the richest club in England.
