Man Utd takeover: Sheikh Jassim could make three sackings as soon as he takes over

As things stand, Sheikh Jassim appears to be the frontrunner to purchase Manchester United. And if the Qatari billionaire does take over, it’s probable that three individuals will be fired as soon as he does. Change may be on the way to Old Trafford, which many fans will welcome after a decade of drifting…

Sir Jim Ratcliffe led the effort to purchase Manchester United at one stage.

However, with recent developments, Sheikh Jassim appears to be the favorite.

So far, the Qatari tycoon, who prefers to keep a quiet profile, has made five bids for United.

And he’s certain that he’ll be able to seize control at Old Trafford and lead the charge against strong rivals Manchester City across town.

Sheikh Jassim, on the other hand, has the potential to be ruthless.

While things have improved behind the scenes at United since the disastrous Ed Woodward era, key figures at the club are still under scrutiny.

Let’s begin with Richard Arnold.

Arnold, unlike Woodward, has learnt from his predecessor and knows better than to engage in football affairs.

While he has helped United maintain their brand, he remains a strong ally of the Glazers.

As a result, Sheikh Jassim may be inclined to use the axe.
