Zilliacus slams Glazers over new Man Utd sale delays: Most farcical in history!

Finnish entrepreneur and Manchester United bidder Thomas Zilliacus has slammed the Glazers over their sale delays.

It emerged over the weekend United's owners had refused to grant exclusivity to either bidder Sheikh Jassim and Sir Jim Ratcliffe as they considered their next move.

Zilliacus' offer also remains on the table, though the tech chief told Tribalfootball.com earlier this month that he accepted the proposal was now unlikely to be accepted.

He has since moved onto other clubs, with Inter Milan emerging as a prospect for Zilliacus and his partners.

Meanwhile, reacting to the Glazer's latest round of delays, he posted to social media: "How many more months shall we read about United takeover news?

"This is already the most farcical club takeover in history. Never seen anyone so unable to make a decision. #manchesterunited #GlazersOut #UnitedWeStand #xxicenturyfootballcapital"
