The Manchester United Supporters' Trust (MUST) has welcomed Sir Jim Ratcliffe's interest in buying the club - but they want the billionaire to "work in partnership with the fans".
INEOS chief Ratcliffe, who is known as Britain's richest man, confirmed his desire to complete a takeover of the Red Devils on Tuesday. Current custodians the Glazers put the club up for sale in November and Ratcliffe has become the first party to make a move.
Ratcliffe, who has been linked with a takeover for a number of years, is a self-confessed United fan and grew up in Greater Manchester. Despite his local roots, MUST want to properly analyse his proposal and ensure the fans will be involved in the project.
