LONDON: British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s firm Ineos has officially entered the race to buy Manchester United.
United’s owners the Glazer family said in November that they were considering selling the club as they “explore strategic alternatives”.
An Ineos spokesperson “We have formally put ourselves into the process.”
Ratcliffe made an unsuccessful £4.25bn offer to buy Chelsea last year after owner Roman Abramovich put the London club up for sale.
