Sources: Qatari sheikh submits final Man Utd bid

Sheikh Jassim made a fifth bid to buy Manchester United and told the Glazer family he wants an answer by Friday, sources told ESPN.

The Qatari businessman lodged the improved bid with Raine Group, the U.S. bank working on behalf of the Glazers, earlier this week.

Sources told ESPN it will be his last offer and it will not be a part of the process beyond Friday. It gives Raine and the Glazers three days to make a decision.

Sources said that Sheikh Jassim has become increasingly frustrated at the lack of progress after the Glazers announced in November 2022 that they would consider “strategic alternatives” including investment or a full sale.
