But the Red Devils won\u2019t be rubber stamping the deal just yet as a board vote scheduled for Thursday has been cancelled. So the takeover debacle could be set to drag on, despite the fact that Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani pulled out of the process last week.<\/p>\n<p>United\u2019s Glazer family owners put the club up for sale last November, with a whole host of parties coming forward to express their interest in investing in the club. The two main frontrunners were Sheikh Jassim, who put forward a \u00a35bn offer to complete a full takeover and Ratcliffe, who has always been open to obtaining a smaller stake in the club.<\/p>\n<p>Negotiations have gone back and forth for months, with the Glazers after the very best deal for their prized asset. And Sheikh Jassim paved the way for Ratcliffe to win the investment race as he decided to take his final offer off the table months after putting it forward.<\/p>\n<p>There had been whispers that Ratcliffe\u2019s deal would be ratified at a board meeting on Thursday, with the investment process tipped to come to an end. But, according to The Telegraph, the 12-strong board will not vote on the deal as the final details are still being thrashed out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click\u00a0<\/strong><strong>here<\/strong><strong>\u00a0to join our Man Utd WhatsApp community to be the first to receive breaking and exclusive Red Devils news<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Read more&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Eddie Hearn pushes for Wayne Rooney to fight Jake Paul after talks with icon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5019204.jpg?r=1697632459539\"><\/p>\n<p>There remains some discussion to settle and there will be \u201cno decision\u201d this week. Sources close to the talks have insisted a deal is still in sight over the next fortnight, with Ratcliffe keen to get everything wrapped up as soon as possible to ensure he will be leading the football operations in time for next transfer window, which opens at the start of January.<\/p>\n<p>The current shareholders aren\u2019t guaranteed to get the entire \u00a31.35bn as part of Ratcliffe\u2019s deal, and the Glazers\u2019 voting rights will be diluted as part of the package. The British billionaire also wants clauses attached that would allow him to eventually complete a full-scale takeover in the future.<\/p>\n<p>We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you&#8217;ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
