The inside track on the football stories that matter
Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani backed out of the process to buy Man United because the Glazer family do not want to sell., former West Ham striker Frank McAvennie suggested that United fans should feel good about the prospect of Sir Jim Ratcliffe taking over the footballing operations at the club.
Sheikh Jassim had offered to buy the club from the Glazers for around £5billion but pulled out of the process as his offer did not meet the owners’ valuation of the club. British businessman Sir Jim Ratcliffe looks set to purchase a 25 per cent minority stake in the club for around £1.4bn and is bidding to take over the footballing operations.putting the brakes on the deal whilst further discussions take place, Ratcliffe could soon be in charge of the footballing side of the club.What I heard was that Ratcliffe is going to take over the footballing side of it and leave the merchandising and stuff -which is all the Glazers are interested in anyway.
