Private groups from Saudi Arabia have joined the race to buy Manchester United ahead of Friday's deadline.
The Telegraph report that groups in Riyadh have made formal inquiries over a full takeover of the club from the Glazer family, who are looking to agree an outright sale.
The family are said to be keeping their options open as they receive the bids, with interest from Qatar and the British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who thus far is the only bidder to go public with his offer.
