Two Asian billionaires were ready to make a £1bn bid to buy Manchester United but were told the Glazer family had no interest in selling the club, it has been reported.
Sky Sports News claims the pair, who have not been named but are apparently “huge Manchester United supporters”, were the investors that provided proof of funds in a Swiss bank account.
It emerged over the weekend that a group with links to super-agent Pini Zahavi was preparing to mount a takeover bid.
However, Sky Sports reports that the Asian billionaires were told the Glazers “were not willing to hear offers”.
The investors have no involvement with the 'Red Knights' consortium which revealed its own takeover plans last week.
