(Reuters) - Manchester United are not being distracted by the prospect of the club being taken over and are remaining focused on their footballing ambitions, manager Erik ten Hag said on Friday.
The initial deadline for bids for the club expires on Friday, with a number of offers expected for what could be the biggest sports deal ever.
"We are enjoying our togetherness at the moment. It’s really enjoyable to work and we are focusing on games and we are in four competitions. Others in the club will have to make decisions and give efforts in the process but it’s not up to us." "I focus on football, they are focusing on other parts, departments of the club how to get everything financed."
United were in Europe's elite competition last year but were knocked out by Atletico Madrid in the last 16 and failed to qualify for this season's edition after a sixth-place league finish.
