Glazers set quick deadline for Man Utd bidders to come forward

Manchester United have told prospective buyers of the club to submit bids in the coming weeks.

The Red Devils' owning family, the Glazers, want to hear about all the relevant offers by mid-February.

The Mirror states that the family, who bought the club in a leveraged buyout in 2005, want almost ten times as much as the £790 million they paid for United.

Per The Telegraph, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is one of those who is assessing the situation at present.

United have been linked to offers from American consortiums, while interest from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE have also been mentioned.

There is no firm information on the identity of the most appealing bidders as yet.
