(Reuters) – U.S.-based hedge fund giant Elliott Investment Management has entered the 5 billion pound bidding battle for Manchester United Plc, The Times reported on Saturday citing sources.
The fund has ruled itself out of a full takeover of the club, but has offered to provide the financing for a bid, the report added.
Elliott Management Corp and Manchester United did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment outside business hours.
