Man Utd takeover: Glazers already talking to Qatari investors but Jim Ratcliffe gets boost

The Glazer family have already begun speaking to Qatari investors as the Manchester United owners continue to explore a potential sale of the club.

Back in November, a statement confirmed that United were potentially open to investment or a full sale. The Glazers have been in charge for close to 20 years, with the late Malcolm Glazer first investing in 2003 before taking a controlling stake two years later.

The Qatari investors are not the only group interested in the club, with Jim Ratcliffe - Britain's richest man - registering an interest. Questions remain over the asking price for the club, and a lower figure could yet open the door for Ratcliffe to step up his own bid.
