Potential Sale of Stake

The article highlights the possibility of Ratcliffe having to sell his 25% stake in Manchester United in 18 months.

In a letter to the Manchester United Supporters Trust, Ratcliffe expressed his commitment to bringing back the glory days to the club. He emphasized the need for time, patience, and professional management to achieve sporting success on the pitch and complement the commercial success the club has enjoyed.
