Sir Jim Ratcliffe's stance on buying Man Utd and his past dealings with Raine Group

Britain's richest man, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, will once again see his name circulated in the media due to the Glazers deciding to put Manchester United up for sale.

Ratcliffe has previously been linked with buying the Premier League giants, following a failed attempt to buy Chelsea in May. But the door has now reopened at United after the Glazer family announced on Tuesday night that they would consider offers for either a partial or full sale of the club.
