Manchester United fans could have clarity about the ownership of the club this week.

The Red Devils are in the process of being sold to either INEOS or the Qatari royal family.

Now the two heads of those respective bids, Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani, are close to discovering the saga's resolution.

Per The Mail, the Glazer family and Raine Group will inform both parties about a preferred bidder in the coming days.

While Sir Jim's INEOS are said to be the favorites, the source states Qatar are confident.

They believe that a new bid they have made puts them in the ideal position to secure United.
