Sir Jim Ratcliffe makes new Manchester United 'decision' as INEOS and Nice claims emerge
manchestereveningnews.co.ukINEOS are reportedly looking to sell Nice - less than six months after acquiring a minority stake in Manchester United. Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS brought Nice in 2019 and have overseen significant investment which has cemented themselves as a top-half side in Ligue 1.
They finished fifth during the 2023/24 season, securing a return to European football after one year away. Despite this, Nice have not competed in the Champions League for seven years.
