The Winter Transfer Window Is Ambitious For Sir Jim Ratcliffe

Sir Jim Ratcliffe was reported to have won the Manchester United Takeover race with Sheikh Jassim backing out from the race.

Sheikh Jassim and his consortium withdrew from the Manchester United takeover process a few weeks ago, with the glazer’s stance on the takeover process looking intensely arduous. Sheikh Jassim has proposed an offer that exceeds the Glazer’s demand but a full takeover handover right was where the Glazers had to draw the line.

Furthermore, Sir Jim Ratcliffe offered to buy a 25℅ stake in Manchester United, with his bid being looked at. Sir Jim Ratcliffe would hope to bring in Paul Mitchell if his proposal is successful and he’s handed full sporting control before the winter transfer window, just a few months away.

Ben Jacobs now reports that Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s ambition is to be in control of Manchester United’s sporting decisions in time for the January transfer window!
