Manchester United have denied that Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim have submitted new, world record bids to buy the club from the Glazers.
That is despite both parties briefing they have lodged offers. The race to purchase the Red Devils has intensified in recent days, with a number of groups very keen to buy the club.
A deadline was set for Wednesday at 9pm for bidders to submit their fresh offers, and it was initially understood that Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim have lodged fresh bids that would smash the record spent for a sporting franchise.
