Elon Musk has sent shockwaves through social media after tweeting yesterday night “he’s buying” Premier League club, Manchester United.
The world’s richest man was urged to buy the Premier League club by desperate fans earlier this year.
Musk, 51, who is the owner of Tesla and Space X and has a net worth of around $265billion (£200bn), also submitted a bid in the region of $41billion (£31bn) to buy Twitter in April.
Musk tweeted, “To be clear, I support the left half of the Republican Party and the right half of the Democratic Party!
“Also, I’m buying Manchester United ur welcome [sic].”
