Sheikh Jassim's last-minute Glazers fear despite 'confidence' of winning Man Utd takeover

Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani remains wary that the Glazer family could remain at Old Trafford rather than selling Manchester United this summer, it has been claimed.

The Qatari's camp are still hopeful of completing a takeover, and are said to believe it is only a matter of time before a decision is announced. Nearly eight months have passed since the Glazers first publicly announced they were entertaining the idea of selling up, and we are yet to reach a conclusion.

Sheikh Jassim has pledged a full takeover through his Nine Two Foundation, while INEOS chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe remains in the hunt. The Glazers still have the option of sticking around, though, with minority investment still on the table.
