The Manchester United Supporters' Trust have blamed the Glazers for forcing Wayne Rooney's exit. Theories being put forward for the shock news are disappointment at a lack of investment in the United squad has forced Rooney to look to clubs such as Manchester City, Barcelona and Real Madrid.
"Like the vast majority of United supporters, we are disappointed to hear the news that Rooney may be leaving and we still hold out hope that the situation can be resolved," the statement read.
"We back Sir Alex's judgement as ever but our concern lies with the owners. They have saddled us with a huge debt and they are taking more and more money out of the club every season and the lack of net investment in the squad since they arrived is clear to all.
"We know where the money is going and it has to stop. The question being asked by many fans is does the ambition of the owners match that of Rooney or indeed Manchester United supporters?
"On the evidence so far, it would appear the answer is clearly not."
