All six of the Glazer siblings could hold reduced stakes in Manchester United should Sir Jim Ratcliffe's bid prove successful.

Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim are battling for control of United, with the process now ongoing for six months.

The Financial Times says Ratcliffe is now emerging as favourite to take control of the club.

It's claimed two people with knowledge of the takeover said the Glazers are now focused on a structure that would allow the six siblings to sell down their stake in proportion to their holdings, allowing Ratcliffe to take control.

This week United were valued at £6bn by Forbes magazine.
