Sheikh Jassim appears in a rare photo on social media as Manchester United takeover talks continue to advance

A rare photo of Sheikh Jassim has emerged on social media as the Qatari billionaire continues his move to try and buy Manchester United this summer.

Sheikh Jassim and British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe are waiting to discover who has won the long-running battle for control for the club.

The Premier League giants are negotiating with the Qatari-led consortium in what is being reported as a £4.7million-plus deal.

According to Reuters, Sheikh Jassim's bid is being viewed more favourably than Ratcliffe's.

And his father took to Instagram on Thursday night to share an image with his three sons.
