The INEOS owner looks set to complete a deal to take a 25 per cent stake in Man Utd after Sheikh Jassim's withdrawal form the takeover process
Sir Jim Ratcliffe looks set to bring with him a wealth of world-class sporting experience should he complete a deal to take a 25 per cent stake in Manchester United. The deal is reportedly set to go before the United board this week after Sheikh Jassim's bid for a full takeover of the club was withdrawn on Saturday.
"We are ambitious and highly competitive and would want to invest in Manchester United to make them the number one club in the world once again. We also recognise that football governance in this country is at a crossroads. We would want to help lead this next chapter, deepening the culture of English football by making the club a beacon for a modern, progressive, fan-centred approach to ownership.
What does set Ratcliffe apart from Sheikh Jassim is his proven track record of owning a football club. Currently in charge of French side Nice, the 70-year-old has experience of appointing senior figures within a club and overseeing its running.
