I suppose possible he could buy a football club by going in with others similar to the red knights attempt.

Not very. £150m ish. Most of his wealth is from selling his whiskey brand/business rather than fighting. Made a decent wedge from his boxing match apparently but he won’t be buying Chelsea or United, unless he is a small part of a large consortium. I don’t know what Celtic is worth, but it seems more likely? Of course the clubs have to actually be up for sale….
IIRC he sold Proper Twelve for half a billion:
Conor McGregor’s net worth as UFC star sells €500million stake in Proper Twelve Whiskey
The Notorious Irishman is on his way to becoming Ireland’s first billionaire sports star

If not, he's the absolute spit of him.
Google has failed me.
Although in my defence that’s in Euros so that’s like £3.20?!!United might secure their new manager sooner than we'd expect.
Is this an attempt from the club to deflect from that appalling performance and result we just witnessed? X
He's a right idiot from what I've read. A despicable human being.
I believe the word you are looking for is ‘cockwomble!’
Upto his eyeballs on coke is my guess.
Maybe the club want the new man appointed before he realises he will be managing in the Europa Conference next season.
This would have been avoided had Rangnick been given the reins at the start as a stop-gap. The club is being run by amateurs.

This will play out well
Audacity of this. Plays like dogshit for two years and then ‘considers his future’ due to lack of game time. Maybe start playing better?
Sick to death of our players blaming everyone but themselves.
Get rid quickly.
It's not the first I've seen snippets like this about Rasford. Rashford directly, or via his advisors, definitely talk to the press.
If he's that good, and given RR's connections, I wish we'd go for him. Given we'll be losing 5-7 attacking players in the next year or 2, am sure we'd find a place for him under the right manager.
This makes me feel nervous. Poch and ETH both said something like they're focusing at their current clubs. If not them, then who? Making RR permanent?
He has no awareness of his performance, or he's become to egoist? He's still getting plenty of minutes for someone who has been underperforming too much for this past 2 seasons. Even his better season, he's inconsistent as hell.
Brilliant news, hope it is true. As someone else mentioned, a player that has been awful for two years and considering there future due to lack of game time they havent even deserved is audacious, please ask to leave.
Would happily take the transfer fee I expect he would bring in as so many more talented and younger players around Europe would cost less.
You have to gauge how it would go down with Ajax/PSG if they both said ‘cba here anymore, I’ve spoken to Utd and I’m off at the end of the season’ (Google Lopetegui and Spain/Real for inspiration)This makes me feel nervous. Poch and ETH both said something like they're focusing at their current clubs. If not them, then who? Making RR permanent?
They are obviously being professional and playing their cards close to there chest. When the time is right out next manager will be announced.
We also want clarity Rashford. Are you still a footballer? Are your performances good enough for your current deal, let alone a new one? Are you OK to play for your boyhood club, the one which paid you millions while you were pretending to be a footballer, for a new deal that reflects your contribution (around 5k per week)?
That translation is quite incorrect. "Personalie" doesn't mean personality, it's a term that refers to Haaland's situation as an employee (one could also word it as "the Haaland issue") and I don't know why "Hängepartie" gets translated as stalemate, because ironically it's the German word for another chess term: adjourned game.
The article is paywalled, so I have to speculate a bit myself, but the meaning of the headline is closer to: "Haaland's situation is developing into a protracted saga on all levels (I assume that refers to transfers that may be contingent on Haaland leaving, possibly because of this theory that he could wait until 2023 to sign for Madrid). The number of critical voices is growing.
The problem with Rashford wanting out is we're going to be light up front next season. It's quite feasible we go into next season without Ronaldo, Cavani, Lingard and Martial. If Rashford then wants to leave as well we've got Sancho as our only senior attacking player.
Over the next 2 years: Mason, Ronaldo, Cavani, Martial, Jesse, Rashford, Pogba (LW).
+ departures in the other areas. Sounds like an opportunity for a proper rebuild under the right management team.
It's possible all those go this summer. Jesse, Cavani, Pogba all out of contract and Ronaldo won't stay with no CL. Mason is a write off which only leaves Martial and Rashford which are most likely the 2 with the highest value.
I had a feeling I was making an incredibly weird statement at the start. Thanks for helping out.
Might want to start using DeepL instead of Google translate. I think it does way better job. The below translation makes a bit more sense, at least to me.
"The #Haaland personnel matter is developing into a hanging game at all levels at the #BVB. Critical voices are increasing. In addition: The #Adeyemi negotiations are stalling (RN+) https://bit.ly/3HRRJXH (Photo: @RN_Florian)"
A little bit of extra info on Rashford:
I typically use Reverso for tougher translations, but if DeepL actually translates whole passages fully rather than specific words/phrases, then I wouldn't mind trying that out.
