The consortium plans to buy out the majority of shares currently held by the American Glazer family. They are keen for Beckham to serve as an 'ambassador' in future negotiations, and the Inter Miami owner would also be given the opportunity to invest in Manchester United's development. Should Beckham decline, the consortium is considering collaboration with Wayne Rooney and Eric Cantona instead.
