Sir Jim Ratcliffe has overseen a number of changes since investing in Manchester United and considered pitching to Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos over plans for Old Trafford and a new stadium
The main idea of the article is that Sir Jim Ratcliffe, a minority shareholder in Manchester United, explored the possibility of involving either Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos in financing a new stadium for the club. Ratcliffe, who initially invested in United with the intention of becoming a minority shareholder, now holds a 27.7% stake. While considering private financing options, he reportedly discussed the possibility of Musk or Bezos contributing funds. However, since then, Ratcliffe has adopted a cost-conscious approach, leading to speculation that fans might bear the cost of the new stadium through increased ticket prices.
