Manchester United's share price has risen by six per cent ahead of the deadline for takeover bids today.
Last week the price dropped to its lowest point of the year as reports surfaced that the Glazers were perhaps having second thoughts about selling the Reds. However, since then, the markets have reacted positively to matters both on and off the pitch.
Representatives from both the Qatari team led by Sheikh Jassim and the bid from Sir Jim Ratcliffe visited Old Trafford last week to have discussions with club officials. Then, on Sunday, United reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup thanks to a comeback 3-1 victory over Fulham at Old Trafford.
