Sheikh Jassim and Sir Jim Ratcliffe told to meet four objectives upon Manchester United takeover

Dwight Yorke says Manchester United’s new owners must invest into the football club, improve the stadium, enhance facilities and subsidise fresh signings should the Glazers indeed decide to sell.

Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani and Sir Jim Ratcliffe remain as frontrunners in the takeover race, which is now into its seventh month. There remains little clarity over how it will conclude with no formal communication from the board since November’s sale announcement.

What remains clear is that the fanbase wants the Glazers to fully exit the club, with supporters staging a protest outside the club’s megastore upon the release of United’s new home shirt on Tuesday.
