Simon Jordan warns Manchester United fans about the 'INEOS curse' as Sir Jim Ratcliffe's company nears £1.3bn minority stake in the club

Simon Jordan has warned Manchester United about the 'INEOS curse' ahead of Sir Jim Ratcliffe completing an expected £1.3billion deal for a 25 per cent stake in Manchester United.

An agreement is close for British billionaire Ratcliffe to assume control of the football operations at the club, almost a year after the Glazers confirmed they were open to investment.

No documents have been signed yet but the end of a saga that started in November 2022 is in sight.

Some United fans are cautiously optimistic as Ratcliffe nears an agreement but talkSPORT's Jordan has suggested otherwise.
