Gary Neville lays out his six demands to Sir Jim Ratcliffe ahead of Manchester United takeover
Manchester United legend Gary Neville has laid out his six demands to the club’s new owners as it looks increasingly likely that Sir Jim Ratcliffe will end up purchasing a minority stake in the Red Devils.
The former Man Utd defender, posting on X, says he came up with five of these demands last year, which he described as non-negotiable, while he has also since added a sixth to his list.

Neville says it’s vital that there is a new sporting project put in place and that the new MUFC ownership invest in things like the training ground, as well as projects outside the club which could boost the local community.

“Leadership that builds a positive environment and culture whilst adhering to the clubs values and principles and one that is willing to make tough decisions to prevent an erosion in the clubs public image.”
