MANCHESTER UNITED manager Erik ten Hag has been denied a sensational triple transfer plan after the club’s latest takeover twist.
United’s unpopular owners the Glazers have snubbed Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al-Thani’s sixth offer worth more than £6billion in total.

Sheikh Jassim’s offer would have included cash to redevelop the facilities, fund an Old Trafford rebuild and clear the existing debt.
This clears the way for Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who is set to buy a 25 per cent stake in the club for £1.4bn with the Glazer family still at the helm after the Qatari bid formally pulled out on Saturday.
Sheikh Jassim accused United‘s owners of demanding an “outlandish” price to sell the club.
The Red Devils’ chiefs are set to sign off on Ratcliffe’s investment at a board meeting this coming week and the INEOS founder will have control over the football side of things.
According to Bild, that will cost Ten Hag some major transfer reinforcement.
That is because Sheikh Jassim was planning to bring Kylian Mbappe, Kingsley Coman and Eduardo Camavinga to Old Trafford.
Paris Saint-Germain superstar Mbappe will become a free agent in June and looks set to join Real Madrid.
However, the Qatari banker was planning to put his billions to good use and steal Mbappe from under Real‘s nose.

The Sheikh was determined to do the same with the star striker’s France team-mates.
Coman and Camavinga have a contract with Bayern Munich and Real respectively until 2027.
Camavinga was previously targeted by United when he still played for Rennes.
And it now seems like the midfielder will play a key role in Los Blancos’ future with Toni Kroos and Luka Modric stepping aside due to their advanced age.
