Qatari banker waiting for response to latest bid of about £6bnLatest offer for 100% of club was made four weeks ago
Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani is increasingly uncertain whether the Glazers will sell Manchester United, with the Qatari banker yet to receive a response to a fifth bid of about £6bn lodged four weeks ago in a process that has reached an eighth month.
Sheikh Jassim’s last offer was a take-it-or-leave-it price because he and his advisers are frustrated with the pace of the potential transaction, and they are unsure about the American family’s intent because there has been no concrete communication regarding the fifth bid from the Raine Group, the US bank which is handling any sale.
