It is known that British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe visited Man Utd in the rain of Manchester.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe invested about 1.3 billiоn pounds to buy back 25% of Man Utd’s shares. He will take control of the football side of the team, while the Glazer family will still retain the decisive sаy in the commercial side.
Sir Jim visited Man Utd when it was pouring rain.
When welcomed and asked what he thought about the torrential rain, he laughed and said: “I’ll have to get used to it!”
It is known that this billionaire met with key members of Man Utd including interim CEO Patrick Stewart and Director Collette Roche.
In particular, this meeting did not have the participation of any member of the Glazer family.
They had lunch and spent time discussing initial ideas to improve Man Utd’s on-field performance.
Currently, Sir Jim cannot immediately run the Red Devils. He will wait for Premier League approval next month and also for the acquisition of Sir Jim’s Class A shares to be approved by the New York Stock Exchange.
Previously, the British press revealed that Erik Ten Hag would be “tested” until the end of the season.
It is expected that Jean-Claude Blanc will take on the position of CEO at the club.
Sir Jim needs to invest heavily in the near future to help Man Utd return to the position of a big man.
