PROTESTING Manchester United fans have hijacked the club’s new kit announcement as protesters blocked the club’s store.

The takeover of the club still looks no nearer to being completed which is having a huge impact on Erik ten Hag’s summer transfer plans.

Angry fans are now protesting today against the current owners, the Glazer family, and blocked the entrance to the megastore.

They were told to meet outside at 9:30am with a heavy police and security presence waiting for them this morning.

But that did not deter them as they unfurled a number of banners and sang “We want the Glazers out”, which forced the club shop to temporarily close for around “two minutes”, according to a source.

United revealed their new classic crimson red shirt, which features a pattern of Lancashire roses, on social media earlier.

And, despite the Red Devils mutually agreeing to end their partnership with TeamViewer back in December, the shirt sponsor still appeared to be the German technology company.

United and TeamViewer have agreed that the club can buy back the rights for their shirt sponsorship once a new partner is agreed.

The kit was shown off by stars such as Marcus Rashford, Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez but fans will have to cough up  £120 for their matchday edition and a replica will cost them £80.

But irate supporters have taken to Twitter to urge others not to buy it.

Another tweeted: “As long as the Glazers are in charge, not gonna buy anything from you guys! #GlazersOut.”

A fellow fan commented: “GLAZERS OUT we are not buying anything.”

As another added: “Nice shirt, all the same though as I won’t be buying anything as long as the Glazers are there!!”

The Glazers put United up for sale in November, slapping on a £6billion price-tag in the process.

But despite setting a deadline for March, Old Trafford is yet to find itself in the hands of a new owner.

Qatari giant Sheikh Jassim is now one of two bidders left in the running alongside British business Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

Both men value United at around £5bn and are ready to back Ten Hag in the market.

But they are offering very different types of bids, with Sheikh Jassim hoping for a full takeover and Ratcliffe ready to keep the Glazers involved.

And while the latter has not been shy in front of cameras, Sheikh Jassim has led his negotiations away from the limelight.

Reports in Qatar claim an improved £5.5bn offer is now set to clinch the takeover in his favour.
