Manchester United are reportedly furious with Sir Jim Ratcliffe's plans to buy the club as they are convinced that the Nice owner has no intention of meeting the Glazers' demand for offers in excess of £6billion.
The 70-year-old confirmed that he has begun the process of sealing a takeover for United earlier this month. He became the first party to make a move since the Glazer family put the club up for sale in November, after a spokesman told the Times his intentions to buy the Red Devils.
United are the second Premier League team that Ratcliffe has attempted to complete a deal for over the past year. Chelsea were in his sights before Todd Boehly swooped in to complete a deal. The American spent over £4billion on the London outfit, but Ratcliffe will have to pay significantly more to take over at the Red Devils.
