Malcolm Glazer is set to face yet another hurdle in his bid to takeover English soccer giants Manchester United after it was claimed two key shareholders will block any hostile approach by the US sports tycoon.
According to reports, Irish duo JP McManus and John Magnier – who already own 29 percent of the club – are prepared to see off another move by Glazer who on Friday submitted a revised $1.5bn takeover offer.
The United board are set to discuss the new proposal this week.
