British businessman Sir Jim Ratcliffe's Ineos Group was the other main bidder but only wanted a controlling stake.through a combination of gross debt, bank borrowings and outstanding transfer fees with associated payments. Earlier this month BBC Sport reported Ratcliffe was considering whether to offer to buy a minority stake in the club in an effort to break the impasse over the ownership situation.
The Glazer family's announcement last year that they were considering selling United led to a flurry of interest but only two offers, from Ineos and Sheikh Jassim.Sheikh Jassim's camp have always maintained he was only interested in buying 100% of the club. However, Ratcliffe said he wanted a majority stake.
United supporters have held demonstrations against the Glazer family inside and outside Old Trafford.
