Investor Jim Ratcliffe will have to play a waiting game before his partial buyout of Manchester United is completed.
According to the Times, he will most likely be brought on board as a co-owner in around eight weeks.
Before he may join the board of directors, he must first pass the Premier League’s owners’ and directors’ test.
Sir Jim and his team are optimistic that the procedure will be finished before the January transfer window.
That is because, after acquiring control of the club’s sports decisions, the British billionaire expects to make moves for the team during the winter transfer window.
Sir Jim could attempt to strengthen the Manchester United squad by making recruits after conferring with Erik ten Hag, whom he is content to maintain under his control.
