KARACHI: Owner of SpaceX and Tesla Elon Musk sent football fans into a frenzy after he joked about buying Premier League top-tier club Manchester United.

Musk, whose estimated net wealth is $270 billion, according to Forbes, tweeted: "Also, I'm buying Manchester United ur welcome."

For United, the beginning of the new season has been tough.

After two losses, they are in last place in the Premier League, top player Cristiano Ronaldo may depart, and fresh signings aren't working out.

However, Musk clarified that it was a "long-running joke" and he is not intending to buy any sports team.

After a "humiliatingly awful" start to the season, their fans are restless, and earlier this week the Manchester United Supporters Trust stated it will "demand answers" from those in charge of the team.
