The INEOS petrochemicals empire owned by Ratcliffe is set to purchase a 25% stake in Manchester United from the Glazer family for £1.3 billion. Ratcliffe plans to pile fresh investment into the club for infrastructure upgrades via staggered payments, according to Sky News. The report added that the money would be financed personally by Ratcliffe, who is Britain’s second-richest man, according to the 2023 Sunday Times Rich List. Through his INEOS company, the 71-year-old owns a third of the Mercedes F1 team. Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff has already backed Ratcliffe to make a major difference at Manchester United. “Jim and his partners, they are first of all complementary,” Wolff said. “They are huge in terms of profit and decisions being made very quickly.“Three bullet points on a page and ‘here we go’.“With Jim, all the bulls*** is cut out. I think that, wherever he gets his power and resource and character behind it, I think that’s going to be an add-on for any team.“He’s a Manchester boy. He has the resources that are needed, the heart in the right place for this team and I’m sure that he can be very creative for Manchester United.Related Hamilton reacts to Mercedes chief technical officer Elliott’s exit F1 announces new long-term deal for Sao Paulo Grand Prix “With us he’s been a fantastic shareholder and a good sounding board for myself.”
