A consortium from Qatar has entered the race to buy Paris Saint Germain from Canal+.
The French giants are expected to be sold in the near future with Canal+ considering offers for their stake in the club.
Jean-Luc Dayan's bid, which was being backed by American company Colony Capital, appeared to be in pole position to purchase PSG.
But interest from the Middle East has now been registered with Canal+, with the consortium comprising members of the Qatar royal family.
Canal+ are believed to be waiting for papers from Qatar to enable them to analyse the offer before reaching a decision.
The stumbling block from Qatar's point of view is rumoured to be the royal family's unhappiness that Canal+ are only willing to sell them a third of Paris Saint Germain.
With the matter seemingly far from settled, PSG coach Guy Lacombe will hope the off-field uncertainty does not impact on the team's quest to qualify for Europe.
