The group looking for a full takeover have made an improved bid for the club - but there are fears that the Glazers won’t accept.

The group have launched an offer of just over £5 billion mark. The Glazers' valuation, however, is £6 billion, so there are fears that it may be that Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani tonight does not take full control of the club and its American owners opt for a different direction.

Online, supporters have vented their fury after seeing the figure - with some believing that there is no chance of the Qataris taking over their side now.

The Glazers eyes must’ve lit up with dollar signs when they first heard Qatar were interested in buying.

Now that they’ve tried to squeeze as much as they can realising Qatar are no idiots, they’ll accept the offer coming their way.

Qatari takeover?

The Qatari group looking for a full takeover have indeed made an improved bid for the club.

The group have launched an offer of just over £5 billion mark. The Glazers' valuation, however, is £6bn, so there are fears that it the bid submitted by Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani tonight has come in a bit short.

Nevertheless, it will break the world record for a sports franchise - with the 10pm final deadline looming. Sheikh Jassim’s bid is thought to be the only one for full control of the side - with an attempt made for 100% of the club.

If accepted his bid would buy out the Glazers and all other shareholders - bringing an end to the American’s 18-year reign, the Daily Mail report.
