Manchester United fans may be closer to discovering who the preferred bidder for the club is.
On Wednesday, it was reported Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani was the Glazers preferred candidate. According to a Daily Express with Grosvenor Sport interview with football finance expert Dr Dan Plumley, the Qatari businessman would be highly thought of by United's current ownership because of the size of his bid.
However, on Thursday, contradictory reports suggest Sir Jim Ratcliffe's INEOS bid is preferred by the Glazers. It has previously been reported Ratcliffe's new bid could see the American family stay at the club as minority stakeholders.
