Former YuuZoo Corp chairman, Thomas Zilliacus, has withdrawn his offer to buy UK club Manchester United, according to UK media.

The Glazer family, which now owns the club, wants to introduce a third round of bidding, which opens the door for more potential buyers.

"The bidding is turning into a farce, with Glazers giving no respect to the club,” writes Zilliacus on Twitter.
