After months of bidding and deliberation, the unwanted Glazers are set to remain in charge of Manchester United when the new season begins.

With less than a month left until the start of the new Premier League season, the issue of Manchester United's sale is yet to be resolved.

After several months of uncertainty and confusion regarding what is true and what isn't, fans of the Red Devils are becoming highly skeptical about the outcome, or, at least, the speed with which it might be achieved.

According to the Daily Mail, the Glazer family will still be in control of the club when United welcome Wolves to Old Trafford on Monday, August 14.

The United owners who are despised by a large section of the fanbase put the club up for sale last November, installing Raine Bank to handle the sale. 

One of the major reasons given for the delay is that the final bids from Qatar’s Sheikh Jassim and Sir Jim Ratcliffe value the club at around £5bn. This is below what the Glazers want and so, this will rumble on for a few months at least.
