Manchester United co-chair Avram Glazer has been spotted leaving a hotel owned by takeover hopeful Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani's father.
Glazer was pictured outside of Claridge's Hotel in London on Monday. The photographs will fuel speculation that Sheikh Jassim is still in the race to become the next owner of the Red Devils, although Mirror Football understands it is a race he will lose.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his INEOS group remain very confident that they will be given preferred bidder status in the coming days following recent communication with the Raine group, the New York-based merchant bank overseeing the sale process.
