The INEOS billionaire is considering switching tack to land a piece of the pie at Man United as the takeover sage drags through its 10th month.
Manchester United’s share price bounced back slightly amid this week’s news that Sir Jim Ratcliffe could pivot into acquiring a small stake in the club.
MEN Sports understands that Ratcliffe’s minority bid would be worth around £1.5bn. Unlike Sheikh Al-Thani, who wishes to buy 100 per cent of the club, Ratcliffe was only interested in acquiring a majority buy-out. Here are the latest reports regarding his bid. That’s according to The Telegraph, which says that is just one of multiple options being considered by Ratcliffe. It adds that Ratcliffe has assured the Glazers he can overcome the financial hurdles to land a successful takeover.
Mitchell had always planned to leave following the summer window but is yet to find a new role and is expected to take time out to consider his next steps. He is one potential option being considered by Ratcliffe while The Independent says Atletico Madrid official Andrea Berta is more of an attraction to the current United boardroom.
