Rio Ferdinand believes that the Qatari bid to buy Manchester United 'won't go any higher' amid suggestions the Glazers still want to raise the club's asking price.
United have been on the market since November 2022 when the club's board announced that they were "exploring strategic alternatives," including a full sale. Nine months later, however, and the Glazer family still rule Old Trafford, understood to be holding out for a whopping £6billion.
Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani is the face of the Qatari bid to purchase the Red Devils and was recently installed as the favourite following reports that rival Sir Jim Ratcliffe was losing confidence. Talks between the Glazers, United figureheads and interested parties are ongoing, but Ferdinand reckons that Sheikh Jassim and co won't increase what's been labelled their fifth and final offer.
