Manchester United have told manager Erik ten Hag that an Old Trafford takeover would give him greater spending power to put the club back at the top of English football.
Ten Hag has welcomed the potential sale following an announcement from the Glazer family last month that they are ready to hand over control.
United spent a club record £220million during the Dutchman's first transfer window in charge last summer, and Ten Hag has been informed that even more money will be available if the sale goes through to compete with his Big Six rivals and emerging threat Newcastle.
