And Neville claims the American owners are trying to drive up the price by opening up another round of offers.

He wrote on Twitter: “Taking it to a third round is just classless.

“The market has obviously not given them the answer they want! It’s like they’ve made a pact to each other that they won’t go for less than £1bn each family member. (five of them).

“If they stay in after all this it will be toxic!”

The Glazers could start exploring a minority investment option if their demands are not met.

US investors Elliott Management are ready to offer the Glazers the financial backing they need to remain in control of the club.

The cash injection could include £2bn to be spent on renovating Old Trafford.

But Neville believes such an arrangement could spark uproar amongst the fanbase, who have called on the Glazers to sell for years.

In recent months there have been protests against the ownership including boycotting matches.

Last month saw chaotic scenes as the deadline for bids was extended by 48 hours.

It led to Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim withdrawing their offers before submitting them again.
