Simon Jordan warns Manchester United fans about the 'INEOS curse' as he claims that Jim Ratcliffe's company have struggled to find success in their other sporting business ventures

Simon Jordan has warned Manchester United about the 'INEOS curse' after Sir Jim Ratcliffe sealed his £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 side of the club, almost a year after the Glazers confirmed they were open to investment.

No documents have been signed yet in Ratcliffe's £1.3billion deal but the end of a saga that started almost a year ago is in sight.

While many United fans are optimistic ahead of Ratcliffe's imminent arrival at the club, talkSPORT's Jordan has suggested otherwise.
