The Qatari group which failed to complete a £4.5billion takeover of Manchester United is not reviving its interest – despite a terrible season for the club which has seen its share price plummet.

Mail Sport revealed that the Doha-based outfit, led by Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani, had joined the hunt to buy the turmoiled Premier League giants after owners the Glazer family announced they were open to selling in November 2022.

However, following a protracted process the group eventually lost out to a bid for a minority share from petrochemicals billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe, which valued the club higher.
