After meeting with club staff and coach Ten Hag at Old Trafford, Sir Jim Ratcliffe delivered an encouraging speech regarding his plan to revitalize Man United.
Yesterday (January 4), Sir Jim and his right-hand man, Sir Dave Brailsford, met with Man United staff and players.
The British millionaire made an especially strong impression with his candid assessment of the club’s downfall post-Sir Alex Ferguson.
He lauded the club’s financial success, but insisted that he invested in Man United to win titles, not to profit from the 1.3 billion pound shares he bought from the Glazer family.
Sir Jim wishes to create a professional environment in order to achieve his objectives. Sir Dave Brailsford will handle professional problems as well as work transfers.
The Man United staff applauded enthusiastically after Sir Jim’s address, which was hailed as honest and ambitious.
The Ineos CEO committed to contribute more money in addition to the initial £1.3 billion, including £300 million to renovate Old Trafford and the Carrington training center.
