Man United revisits plans for Singapore IPO

Manchester United, the record 19-time English soccer champion, is revisiting plans for an initial public offering in Singapore as stock markets recover, said five people with knowledge of the matter.

United and its bankers restarted discussions about 10 days ago, said one of the people, who requested anonymity because the deliberations are private. The IPO may take place this year, two people said.

The soccer club received the Singapore stock exchange’s approval in September to raise about $1bn (€760m) in an IPO, people with knowledge of the matter said at the time.
