Sir Jim Ratcliffe is eyeing up a swoop for Crystal Palace sporting director Dougie Freedman once the British billionaire's £1.3billion deal to buy a 25 percent stake in Manchester United is complete.
In the last few days, reports have claimed that the INEOS CEO could 'axe three Man United chiefs - including CEO Richard Arnold' once his take over is completed.
The 71-year-old is reportedly considering an overhaul of the club's executive team and is thought to be considering an investment of approximately £245million to improve the club's infrastructure.
