Avram Glazer, co-owner of Manchester United and scion of the US billionaire Glazer family, is making a renewed push into Indian cricket. Alongside his role at Manchester United, he sits on the board of Red Football Ltd., shares co-chairmanship of Manchester United Ltd., and presides as chairman of Innovate Corp, reported NDTVProfit. He is also exploring opportunities with other IPL franchises, including Rajasthan Royals. The 2025 RCB title win has made the franchise one of the most valuable in the IPL, with Diageo reportedly seeking around $2.1 billion for the team. In 2023, Glazer and his siblings sold a 25 per cent stake in Manchester United to British chemicals tycoon Sir Jim Ratcliffe, valuing the club at $5.4 billion after debt.
