Manchester United are continuing attempts to agree new contracts with David de Gea and Marcus Rashford despite the uncertain ownership situation around the club.
The deadline for second bids to buy the club initially passed at 9pm last night, but that timeframe has now been extended with the Qatar bid of Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani and Sir Jim Ratcliffe's INEOS group working on new offers.
Sheikh Jassim and Ratcliffe are both interested in a deal to buy the club from the Glazer family, but the possibility of the current United owners opting to stay in control, with fresh capital being offered up by a financial institution or hedge fund, hasn't been ruled out.
