Manchester United fans may not be able to get rid of the Glazer family as they had expected.
The Red Devils' supporters were hoping the Glazers would sell the club in the coming months.
Sheikh Jassim of Qatar and Sir Jim Ratcliffe are vying to outright purchase the team from the family.
According to the Manchester Evening News, co-owner Joel Glazer does not want to part with United.
The family is hoping to raise funds through an outside financial group to redevelop Old Trafford and improve other facilities at the club.
They also see the new investment as a way to improve the first team and boost the club's standing in the game.
