Manchester United's takeover remains firmly in the balance ahead of this weekend's Premier League action as supporters await news from the Glazers.

Two bidders have distanced themselves as favourites to purchase the club should the American owners come to the conclusion a full sale is required following their strategic review.

Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al-Thani and Sir Jim Ratcliffe have both proposed offers around the £5bn mark but it is believed the Glazers are wanting a bid in the region of £6bn.

The consensus among supporters remains that the Glazers should sell up and leave the club. But, as the takeover headlines below suggest, there is no straightforward solution to the sale process.
