Former Man United takeover hopeful Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al-Thani could be about to take his money elsewhere in the Premier League
Manchester United returned to winning ways on Saturday as they beat Fulham 1-0 in the Premier League.
The three points were a big confidence boost for Erik ten Hag and the supporters at the end of a tough week. Meanwhile, on the takeover front, the Reds are still awaiting official confirmation of Sir Jim Ratcliffe joining the boardroom after Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al-Thani withdrew from the process.
The Qatari banker cited the Glazers' valuation of the club as the reason for his withdrawal and this has led to speculation as to where he may now take his money. According to reports, he is unlikely to move to Tottenham Hotspur.READ MORE: F1 chief confirms takeover talksSheikh Jassim 'set for Spurs decision' According to The Athletic's David Ornstein, Sheikh Jassim is unlikely to invest in Tottenham now the United opportunity has gone.
