Manchester United fans are still in the dark about how the takeover process is evolving despite it being seven months since the Glazers announced plans to explore 'strategic alternatives'.

While prospective buyers have been whittled down to two, neither Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani nor Sir Jim Ratcliffe have any more clarity on their progress.

The latter is reportedly losing confidence of a United takeover amid speculation that all members of the Glazer family on the United board are willing to sell up for the right price.

Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim has reportedly received a boost in his takeover hopes after Avram and Joel Glazer agreed to prioritise a full sale of the club.
