<\/p>\nSIR JIM RATCLIFFE will invest \u00a3245MILLION into Manchester United's infrastructure as part of his 25 per cent takeover, according to reports.<\/p>\n
The British billionaire, 71, will pledge the investment as part of his acquisition which is expected to be worth more than \u00a31.25billion.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
According to Sky News, the \u00a3245m investment on infrastructure will be staggered.<\/p>\n
However, the "majority" of the sum will be given to the club by the end of the year.<\/p>\n
This would appear positive news for many Man Utd fans as Old Trafford has been criticised for being left in an old, decaying state.<\/p>\n
But many are still unimpressed by Ratcliffe's pledge as they do not believe the funds will address the widespread issues.<\/p>\n
They also feel Ratcliffe will simply facilitate the Glazers – who are set to retain majority control of the club.<\/p>\n One said: "That money won\u2019t even touch the sides.<\/p>\n "All he\u2019s there to do is fill the pockets for Glazers and fund the club while the Glazers sit back and continue to take out there dividends."<\/p>\n Another added: "Man said 2 signings worth. This is a joke."<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/crop-24433307.jpg\")
