Jim Ratcliffe s bid to purchase a 25 per cent stake in Manchester United could serve as a foot in the door ahead of a potential full takeover in the future, unless the Glazer family see a way to extract further value from the Red Devils.
That is the view of finance expert Dan Plumley, who believes United could realistically be valued at up to £7billion in the coming years.
A deal for Ratcliffe s INEOS group to purchase a stake in the club is believed to be close to completion, with the deeply unpopular Glazer family opting against a full sale despite fan pressure.
Ratcliffe was initially rivalling Qatar s Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al Thani for a full takeover, and though the British billionaire will now only acquire a minority share, he will reportedly be given f…
Manchester United are interested in signing Fikayo Tomori from AC Milan in the summer transfer window, according to . The report has claimed that the Premier League club scouted the defender in action for Milan against AS Roma at Stadio Olimpico in Rome in Serie A this past weekend.
Tomori is open to leaving AC Milan for a club in the Premier League in the summer of 2023. The 25-year-old England international central defender believes that a move back to a club in the English top flight would see him get more playing time for the Three Lions.
The 25-year-old has been on the books of AC Milan since 2021 when he made the move permanent after a loan spell at San Siro. The defender helped the Rossoneri win Serie A last season. Milan have progressed to the semi-finals of the…
A deal has been agreed in principle for the sale of Wigan Athletic, according to the current ownership group.
The deal will require EFL approval and no details of the prospective buyer were given in a brief statement posted on the club’s website on Sunday evening.
“The prospective new owners have committed to resolving all outstanding liabilities at the earliest opportunity,” the statement read.

The Latics were handed the initial deduction in response to two late paym…
Croatia suffered the biggest defeat in their history as Spain thrashed them 6-0 in Tuesday s Nations League match at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero.
Marco Asensio scored once and set up four more in Luis Enrique s second match in charge, as the World Cup finalists were run ragged in Elche.
Saul Niguez headed Spain in front before Asensio fired in two spectacular strikes, although the second was credited as an own goal from Lovre Kalinic.
Croatia, for whom Ivan Rakitic was making his 100th appearance, rarely got to grips with their opponents and conceded three times more in the second half through Rodrigo Moreno, Sergio Ramos and Isco.
The result is their heaviest ever defeat, the first time they have conceded six goals and the first game in which they hav…
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers was delighted to see an “emotional” Reo Hatate back on the pitch before the Japan midfielder departs for the Asian Cup.
Hatate made his first appearance in 10 weeks when he came off the bench during Celtic’s 3-0 win over St Mirren.
The 26-year-old’s latest lay-off because of a hamstring injury was his third leg muscle injury of 2023 and he appeared to be in tears as Rodgers embraced him after the final whistle in Paisley.
Hatate will head off to Qatar with Japan and might not be back until February but Rodgers is excited to see the midfielder perform when he returns.
“You could see afterwards he was actually quite emotional to be back out on the pitch again,” the Celtic boss said. “He’s put in so much hard wo…

Lionel Messi deserves to win the Ballon d Or this year, according to Barcelona and Brazil great Rivaldo.
Messi enjoyed another stellar season for Barca, scoring 51 goals in all competitions as the Spanish giants claimed the LaLiga title.
However, they fell short in the Champions League and lost the Copa del Rey final, while Argentina could only clinch third place at the Copa America.
Despite that, Rivaldo believes Messi should be awarded an outright record sixth Ballon d Or.
In my opinion, the Ballon D Or of this season is Messi for what he has done, the 1999 winner said, courtesy of Betfair.

Hibernian boss Lee Johnson is looking forward to working with Jojo Wollacott again after signing the Ghana international goalkeeper from Charlton on a three-year deal.
The 26-year-old has joined the Easter Road club for an undisclosed fee and will compete with veteran David Marshall following the departure of Kevin Dabrowski, who was released at the end of last season.
Johnson was manager of Bristol City while Wollacott was trying to break into the first team at Ashton Gate after coming through the academy.
After being unable to establish himself at City, the keeper joined Swindon, where he was number one throughout the 2021-22 season before moving on to Charlton last summer.
Wollacott, who has earned 11 caps for Ghana since his debut in October 2021, mad…
Erik ten Hag is demanding Manchester United raise the bar once again having overseen “necessary” and “immense” improvements during his first year in charge.
Last summer the Dutchman took the reins at a club in disarray, with a lack of coherency, quality and joined-up thinking resulting in a wretched 2021-22 campaign.
Ten Hag brought in a new style, implemented demanding standards and handled star Cristiano Ronaldo’s exit as well he could before masterminding the end of United’s six-year wait for silverware.
The Carabao Cup triumph was followed by a third-placed Premier League finish and FA Cup final loss to eventual treble winners Manchester City, who are the target as they push for further improvements.
“I think the levels all across increa…
Kyle Walker revealed his training-ground mocking of the Manchester City goalkeepers contributed to his unorthodox role at Atalanta, where he found life a little tougher than anticipated.
Right-back Walker ended the match at San Siro in goal after Ederson was injured and substitute Claudio Bravo was sent off in the 1-1 draw.
The England defender was introduced in place of Riyad Mahrez and donned the gloves, remarkably making the only save of all three City keepers from Ruslan Malinovskiy s free-kick following the foul that saw Bravo dismissed.
Walker saw out the remaining nine minutes and stoppage time without conceding, before reflecting on a bizarre outing.
Asked if he had made the decision to go in goal himself or been instructed to do so, Walker told B…
