United have yet to comment on the news of the 70-year-old’s interest in taking over from the United States-based Glazers. United’s owners, the Glazer family, said they were willing to listen to offers for the Premier League club in November and Ratcliffe is keen to strike a deal.

Ineos has entered the bidding process to buy Manchester United. Ratcliffe, one of the richest people in Britain, is a United fan and has previously indicated a desire to buy the club. Jim Ratcliffe is entering the bidding to buy Manchester United.
Chemicals giant founder confirms he has put himself forward to acquire Premier League giants from Glazer family.
A stumbling block for Ratcliffe could be his ownership of other European clubs. He bought the Ligue 1 club in 2019 for €100 million (US$108 million) – United have been valued north of UK£5 billion (US$6.2 billion). However, there will be no issues provided they don’t play in the same competition. One of Ratcliffe’s reasons for buying Nice was he felt at the time that English soccer teams were overvalued. Ratcliffe and Ineos are the first to publicly declare their intention of acquiring United. While Ratcliffe’s wider sports portfolio includes French top-tier soccer outfit Nice and Switzerland’s Lausanne, United are an entirely different commitment for the 70-year-old.
The 70-year-old saw a last-ditch £4.25billion bid for Chelsea rejected last year.
