Elon Musk claims he is ‘buying Manchester United. Elon Musk, the eccentric CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, tweeted on Tuesday he was “buying Manchester United” as one of the most famous soccer clubs started its Premier League season in turmoil.
Musk made the remark in a series of tweets in which he joked about who he supported politically. Then, came the tweet about the Red Devils.
“Also, I’m buying Manchester United ur welcome.”
The remark drew some interesting reactions on social media.
It’s unclear whether Musk was serious, but adding more fuel to the chaotic start to the 2022-23 season Manchester United has already gone through wasn’t exactly what they probably needed.
Manchester United started the season with a 2-1 loss to Brighton earlier this month and then this past weekend were shut out against Brentford 4-0. The squad boasts all-world players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Harry Maguire and Marcus Rashford and haven not won a Premier League fixture since May.
