Last October, the Crown Prince indicated his interest in the club but the move was marred by diplomatic constraints between the United Kingdom and Saudi government at the time.
Prince bin Salman's interest in Manchester United is to rival Manchester City's dominance in English Premier League which have become world class club since Sheikh Mansour of Abu Dhabi took over ownership.
However, the £3.8 million valuation from Prince Salman would hold provided the club interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is able to lead the club to UEFA Champions League ootherwise the value is expected to drop.
