It has now been some seven months since the Glazer family announced they would be open to selling Manchester United but still the takeover saga rumbles on.
There are two bids on the table, both different in their nature. The approach from Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani would see the Qatari take over United in its entirety.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe's bid is different and would not see United taken over completely. Sir Jim's Ineos firm would have a majority stake in the club, but with the Glazers remaining at Old Trafford in a minority role and no longer in complete control of the Reds.
It remains to be seen which bid will be successful, or even if the Glazers deem either to be up to their valuation of the club.
