Billionaire Jim Ratcliffe is still in the process of completing the acquisition of 25% of MU’s shares. One of the things that is expected on the day the British billionaire lands is to bring “blockbusters” to Old Trafford.
Launch gift from British billionaire?
The Glazer family agreed to Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s plan to buy back 25% of shares. Accordingly, England’s richest billionaire was given the right to manage professional affairs at Old Trafford. The Glazer family at that time only cared about business results and their dividends.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe is hoping to buy back 25% of MU’s shares
That means, the INEOS group owned by Sir Jim Ratcliffe will be in charge of managing general affairs at Old Trafford, especially transfer issues. “Red Devils” fans believe that the new operating unit will bring quality deals to Old Trafford to improve the club’s performance, with the focus of the plan being the ambition to recruit superstar Kylian Mbappe.
Considered one of the best players in the football world at the moment, Mbappe is the desire of every team. It is worth mentioning that this player is in the final months of his contract, and is likely to leave the parent club PSG on a free basis.
According to the Mirror, Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s staff received orders to bring Kylian Mbappe to Old Trafford as a debut gift, once they sat in the executive chair. Britain’s richest billionaire is willing to spend heavily on this deal.
The first goal that Sir Jim Ratcliffe promised when asking to buy back 25% of the shares from the Glazer family was to bring prestigious trophies to the Old Trafford hall of fame. MU has not won the Premier League for 10 years, since Sir Alex Ferguson’s last season, and has not been able to win the Champions League for 15 years.
Under Sir Alex, MU always had a strong attraction with the best players in Europe. In the summer of 2012, the “Red Devils” brought in Robin Van Persie and this deal contributed to the success of Sir Alex’s final season.
The difficulty bundle the wisdom
However, MU at the present time is struggling to compete for a ticket to the Champions League, while the title attraction is hitting bottom. It was not until February of this year that coach Erik Ten Hag ended the title drought that lasted more than 5 years at Old Trafford. Therefore, they have difficulty competing for good players in the face of great attraction from Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal or the dominant team Chelsea.
Wanting to recruit Mbappe, MU has difficulty
Commenting on the possibility of MU recruiting Mbappe, legend Dwight Yorke is quite pessimistic. The striker who participated in MU’s treble season 1998/99 commented: “In the past, MU has always been an attractive team and had the ability to attract players like Mbape. But the field achievements grass in recent years against that plan.”
Dwight Yorke pointed out the crux of the problem: “I learned from Sir Alex that to attract the best players, MU must dominate the domestic tournament. Unfortunately, Man City is the team that can do it.” That. They got Erling Haaland relatively easily, and the result was the treble last season.”
The Old Trafford legend concluded the issue: “I don’t know what Sir Jim Ratcliffe can bring to MU with the expected 25% stake. However, the plan to recruit Mbappe or the players in His level is very difficult for MU right now.”
