Man Utd takeover LIVE – New timeframe laid out as Sheikh Jassim talk continues
Ex-Manchester United star Dimitar Berbatov says that the Red Devils takeover is a ‘step in the right direction’ despite it not being what fans had originally expected and hoped for.
He told Betfair: “The Glazers buying the club started out as a good purchase and now people no longer like them and don’t want them to be there. We’ve been waiting for the club to be sold, it hasn’t happened and now we’ve seen the news about Jim Ratcliffe.
“We’ll have to see how it works out. We need to find out who will be making the final decisions, whether it’ll be Jim Ratcliffe or the Glazers. I’m curious to hear what Man United fans think about it.
“Everyone is waiting for the club to be run better and if Jim Ratcliffe is the answer then we need to wait and see how it all unfolds.
“Looking at what it could mean for the club and what will need be addressed, on the pitch, it will still come down to who Erik ten Hag likes and who he wants to bring in.
“Away from the pitch, the stadium needs to be renovated. It used to be one of the best stadiums in the world back in the day.
“Now, with a bit of refurbishment, it can become one of the top stadiums in Europe. It doesn’t need much work, some things just need to be made more modern and in-keeping with the current times. That’s all that needs to be done in my opinion.”
