They wanted to be millionaires, the worst news Manchester United receives from its potential buyer

Manchester United is in the process of being bought by one of the most important sheikhs of all. The English club would no longer be owned by the Glazer family in the face of a strong offer from Sheikh Jassim. However, it seems that negative news is coming to the Red Devils. All in the face of a delay in this process.

Qatar's Sheikh Jassim submitted his fifth takeover bid for Premier League side Manchester United, according to La Republica. This is an important insistence by this tycoon, who does not want to cross his arms for this process, but expects to have important news, although he already gives a warning.

Although the sale process has been underway since February, Sheikh Jassim has made it clear that he will not make any more offers after Friday, said the aforementioned source, adding that Sheikh Jassim was interested in a deal before the opening of the player transfer window in a matter of weeks. According to the British press, this offer, while an improvement on the previous one, falls short of the £6 billion (€6.7 billion) the Glazer family is asking to divest itself of the club it has owned since 2005.

Since the 'Red Devils' were put up for sale in November, Qatar and Jim Ratcliffe have been the most interested parties in their purchase and now the process is entering its final stretch, due to the proximity of the transfer market, which starts next June 14, and the need to offer guarantees to Erik Ten Hag's project.

What is the bad news for Manchester United?

According to British media, Sheikh Jassim will withdraw from the process of buying the club, if his offer is not accepted before Friday. The potential new owner is losing patience and does not want to wait any longer. If he ends up withdrawing, the only possible new owner would be Jim Rattclife.
