sSir Jim Radcliffe, the UK’s richest man, announced on Wednesday afternoon that he was keen to move forward with a proposal to take over Manchester United from current owners the Glazer family.
“If the club is for sale, Jim would certainly be a potential buyer,” a spokesman for the managing director of multinational chemicals giant INEOS said in a statement to the British newspaper. The Times.
The position comes hours after Bloomberg News reported that Portuguese internationals Cristiano Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot are considering selling part of their positions.
Remember that the Glazer family has dictated the fortunes of the Old Trafford club since 2005. However, the decision crisis established after Sir Alex Ferguson’s ‘farewell’ led to fan discontent growing exponentially.
