Despite INEOS gaining sporting control of Manchester United in early 2024, it turns out that this control is not absolute.
Details: Sir Jim Ratcliffe owns only 27.7% of the club’s shares, while the remaining stake remains with the Glazer family. According to MEN, one of the Glazer brothers, Joel, still holds influence over United’s transfer strategy. He retains the right to sign off on deals and even veto them.
In recent years, Joel Glazer has become less publicly visible. His last known visit to Old Trafford was in 2019, during United’s Champions League quarter-final clash against Barcelona.
Reminder: Previously, Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim stated that he wants to keep Alejandro Garnacho at the club.
