Manchester United takeover news LIVE Sheikh Jassim doubt and Sir Jim Ratcliffe stance

Manchester United are yet to find a resolution to the ongoing takeover saga.

Mason Mount has become the club's first signing of the summer transfer window, but the club's takeover saga continues to rumble on in the background. Supporters are desperate for some communication or clarity, with it being eight months since the Glazer family announced their intention to explore potentially selling the football club.

There have been no public updates from United's current owners since then, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani still the two front runners. The former's bid is for a majority stake in United, while the latter is seeking a full takeover of the Old Trafford outfit.

More positions in Erik ten Hag's squad require some help, but it remains to be seen if and when the club's takeover will be concluded and what impact it would have on future business. The Dutchman is targeting a goalkeeper and centre-forward after securing the signature of Mount.
