Sir Jim Ratcliffe of INEOS has extended the deadline of their bid to purchase Manchester United after being granted a deadline extension on Wednesday. The British billionaire personally visited Old Trafford and Carrington last week in an effort to show a more personal touch. A total of eight offers were expected to be made, with around half proposing minority stakes or potential financing to other bids. The first round saw bidders submit short statements and proof of finances, but no offer exceeding the £4.5billion mark.

The Glazers will now consult with Raine over the next week to evaluate the bids and decide their next move.
