Man United new owners in-tray on and off field at Old Trafford

We may finally be approaching the endgame in the battle to buy Manchester United.

Mail Sport reported on Sunday that the two bidders - Qatari sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani and British petrochemicals billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe - are finalising the details of their offers.

By the end of the week, we will hopefully know which is the preferred choice ahead of the sale of the Old Trafford club being completed.

Sheikh Jassim's dramatic submission of an improved offer - believed to be around the £5billion mark with the promise of an additional £1bn investment for total control of the club - last week has blown the race wide open again.
