Why Manchester United share price has increased and what it means for Sheikh Jassim's bid
Manchester United's share price has risen because traders are 'betting' on Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani of Qatar acquiring the club.
It emerged on Monday that United's share price had risen to its highest price in a month, sitting at over $23 per share, and by Tuesday morning, the price increased again to $25 per share, which adds close to $1billion to the club's value.
