The Glazers are listening to minority offers for Manchester United and could remain in charge of the club once the takeover saga ends.
United's unpopular owners put the Premier League club up for sale last November and received two confirmed offers for full ownership from Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani and INEOS chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe ahead of last month's 'soft' deadline.
The Glazers are yet to accept a bid for United and more offers - including minority bids - are expected to be made during the coming weeks. Such offers will not be welcomed by those Red Devils fans who want the Glazers to sell up after a decade of stagnation.
