"I was attracted to the success and winning mentality of the club and the people that surround United. Irish legends like Denis Irwin and Roy Keane were dedicated to their craft and had that winning mentality. Roy Keane was one of the greatest midfielders European football has ever seen. Opponents were already beaten mentally before they even stepped on the pitch to face him," McGregor added.

A Twitter user commented on one of McGregor's posts 'Buy Liverpool FC' to which the Irishman replied 'I'd love to'. Subsequently, the former UFC champion claimed that 'as soon' as he heard about the possible sale of the 'Reds' he asked for 'information about it' and finally added 'What a turn of events, what a club'.
