The family of the owner of Manchester United did not want to sell the club, but Sir Jim Ratcliffe still wants to buy it.
Ratcliffe was unsuccessful in his attempt to buy the English soccer team.
The billionaire met the brothers of the club he owns.
Six of the father's children own it and don't want to sell it.
He told the Financial Times Live conference that he met Avram andJoel and they were very nice. They are good men.
If it had been for sale in the summer, we would have followed it closely.
We can't wait for Manchester United to become available.
The United have been owned by a family.
A protest by United fans against the owners of the club led to the postponement of their home game in the premier league.
In August of this year, thousands of supporters marched to Old United in protest.
Ratcliffe, the majority shareholder of Ineos, made a late bid for the club but lost out to a group led by an American.
Ratcliffe said in the interview that he has "split loyalties" between United and the other club.
Football is the most popular sport in the world and it is the sport closest to us.
We should have something. I believe a premier club.
