Sir Jim Ratcliffe, Erik ten Hag and Joel GLazer

Following the announcement earlier this week that Manchester United would be put up for sale, it has been reported that Sir Jim Ratcliffe will make an offer to purchase the club.

The Failsworth-born billionaire Ratcliffe, whose company Ineos owns French outfit OGC Nice, is a United fan and has stated his interest in purchasing the club as recently as August, when fan revolt began to grow again against the Glazers following United's terrible start to the Premier League season. Ratcliffe's interest in purchasing the club came at a time when fan revolt began to grow against the Glazers again following United's terrible start to the Premier League season.

According to The Telegraph, Ratcliffe has reconsidered his offer to purchase the club and plans to do so, but he will do so with the caveat that he will not pay more than the going rate.

The news comes as the Qatar 2022 World Cup has already begun in earnest, and Cristiano Ronaldo is scheduled to play in his first game since leaving Manchester United when Portugal faces Ghana in a Group G matchup at 4 p.m. local time. Portugal will be competing in the tournament.

The Uruguayan team will begin with Facundo Pellistri.

Breel Embolo scored the game-winning goal for Switzerland in the 48th minute of their World Cup matchup against Cameroon, which resulted in a 1-0 victory for Switzerland.

The match between Uruguay and South Korea is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m., and a young player from United named Pellistri will start for the South American side.

The 20-year-old player has not yet made his debut for United, but he was recently given the opportunity to demonstrate to Erik ten Hag what he can contribute to the team while he is in Qatar.


Apple was reportedly "interested" in purchasing United

According to a report in The Daily Star, global technology giants Apple are reportedly 'interested' in purchasing the club for a staggering price of £5.8 billion.

They report that CEO Tim Cook is "keen" to explore the opportunities that owning United could provide, and that he will line up talks with the banks appointed to oversee the sale of the company, which include The Raine Group.

The news comes after it was reported last night by the Daily Telegraph that Sir Jim Ratcliffe will make a bid for United, but the British billionaire now appears to be up against some fierce competition if he is to get his hands on the club he supported since he was a child.

Old Trafford may hold the key to a Ratcliffe takeover, according to one opinion.
"no comment from us on United," was the response that was given on behalf of Failsworth's most famous son now that the club is officially up for sale. This comes three months after it was announced that Sir Jim Ratcliffe was interested in ending the occupation of Manchester United by the Glazer family.

At an event hosted by the Financial Times on the 13th of October, Ratcliffe stated: "We can't sit around hoping that one day Manchester United will become available." Forty days later, that day finally arrived.

Ratcliffe is going to investigate United in great detail and depth. Ben Ainslie's never-ending pursuit to win the America's Cup is supported by Ratcliffe, and Nice have risen from being a mid-table fodder in Ligue 1 to being contenders for the Champions League thanks to the head of the Ineos petrochemicals empire, who is a driven enough billionaire to have bankrolled Eliud Kipchoge's successful attempt to run a marathon in under two hours.

 

How long is Keane going to be able to defend Ronaldo?

Lee Sharpe believes that it is "difficult" for Roy Keane to continue defending Ronaldo in the face of criticism.

According to what Sharpe said to OLBG, Roy Keane is a huge fan of Ronaldo because he is aware of how many goals he can score and what he can do while he is on the field.

I can see where Keane is coming from because I believe that Ronaldo would have a greater scoring output if he played in more games and maintained his game fitness. However, after Ronaldo's criticism of the club, it will be challenging for Keane to support Ronaldo's cause. "

"They will get money from the marketing, but the sport itself is not something that they really care about, in my opinion,"

Being criticized is an inevitable part of being a football player because football is a sport in which everyone participates "Pickford said. "But of course, he deserves a great deal more respect, despite the fact that Harry is mentally tough and copes with criticism extremely well.

"It seems a little unfair to me, but his play on the field demonstrates why he has so many caps for England and why he is the captain of Man United.

"Harry has accomplished an incredible amount. There was a pass that Iran used to score their first goal, then he provided an assist on their second goal, and he possibly could have gotten us a penalty. My relationship with Harry is very strong and healthy. The vast majority of my caps have been accomplished while Harry has been playing in front of me.

"We are able to accomplish a lot when we cooperate. Since Harry has been playing defense for us, our defensive record has gotten even better, and he is having a fantastic season overall.
