The Glazer family have been handed a fresh warning about not selling Manchester United.
At the beginning of last week, reports emerged suggesting Joel and Avram Glazer were becoming increasingly confident about remaining in charge. However, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani both set to enter a third round of the bidding process, United supporters are urging the Americans to step aside and sell.

Glazers warned of 'open revolt'
Manchester United Supporters' Trust (MUST) has warned of an 'open revolt' if the Glazers back down from selling Manchester United.
The Glazer family invited more frustration earlier this month by deciding to open a third round of bidding, elongating any takeover process to at least the April 28 deadline. The news was enough for Finnish businessman Thomas Zilliacus to pull out of the race, labelling it a 'farce' and criticising the current owners for not coming to the table to negotiate.
Earlier this week, reports suggested that the American family could retain a majority share of United as they look to welcome a more sizeable payout in the future after a period of success under Erik ten Hag. That has intensified fears among supporters that any investment will be a minority stake and that the Glazers will remain in control.
Full sale 'most likely scenario'
Despite the Glazers being reportedly interested in remaining the owners of United, the latest reports claim that a full sale is still the 'most likely option'.
Speaking to Give Me Sport, journalist Ben Jacobs said: "The most likely and cleanest scenario remains an outright sale. But naturally, the Glazers have got a variety of options.
"When people say they might be confident about staying at the football club, that doesn't mean that it's the most likely scenario from what I'm told from sources. It shows that there are options for them to choose from ahead of the final deadline on April 28.
"But it's very complicated if the Glazers stay at the football club unless a minority investor with them staying can provide the financing that allows them to take that approach to move the club forward."
