JAKARTA - The owner of Manchester United (MU), the Glazer family, has set Friday, February 17, to be the last deadline for bidding. This was done to reduce the most serious offer for buyers.
"They (the Glazers family) set February 17 as a deadline for interested parties to disclose their offer alongside evidence of funds," the statement was quoted as saying by The Sun on Wednesday, February 15.
So far, investors from Qatar have made an offer of 4 billion pounds (Rp73 trillion). However, that number could have increased due to financial support from the Qatar ruler, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani.
The same source said that Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani reportedly intends to bid 370 billion (Rp600 trillion). The entrepreneur is even said to have held talks with the Glazers family.
Sheikh Tamim dared to offer big offers because he also has invaluable sources of funds. The Thani family is known to have invested in a number of properties around the world.
That includes the tally of Shar London, Olympic Village, department store Harrods, Canary Wharf, Chelsea Barracks, and Empire State Building New York. The royal family also has investments in Barclays Bank, British Airways, and Volkswagen.
In addition to the offer from Qatar, MU has so far also been in demand by one of the richest British men, Sir Jim Ratelege. Ratelege is a Manchunian who failed in his bid to buy the Blues last year.
In his bid to get MU this time, he has recruited JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs to help with his offer.
Most recently on MU's list of fans is Elon Musk who owns Tesla and Twitter. He is known to be a fan of this club and is considering a surprise offer for United.
Elon Musk is rumored to have a wealth of 157 billion pounds (Rp. 288 trillion). He became one of the few selected people to be able to buy the Red Devils.
He is in second place after Bernard Arnault, CEO and chairman of luxury goods company LMVH, who is reported to have a fortune of 156 million.
