Counter-Uno. During the weekend, Mancunian supporters learned that Qatar was withdrawing from the race to buy Manchester United, thus benefiting Jim Ratcliffe who hopes to buy 25% of the club. This resounding news comes after months of discussions with the Glazers, who are destined to make life difficult for future buyers.

The London club is open to offers and could therefore be run by Qatar in some way in the future.

A way for him to get revenge on the Glazers. To be continued.
