Morgan Schneiderlin offers Sir Jim Ratcliffe insight amid Manchester United takeover bid

Former Manchester United player Morgan Schneiderlin has claimed Sir Jim Ratcliffe is "so nice and good" as the British billionaire aims to become the Reds' new owner.

Ratcliffe and Ineos submitted a revised bid for United last week after they were granted an extension beyond the initial deadline. It came after the 70-year-old tabled a first offer thought to be in the region of £4billion.

It is widely reported that the Glazer family would want a record £6bn for the club if they decide to sell, with Ratcliffe competing with Qatari banker Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani and other interested parties.
