SIR JIM RATCLIFFE and Sir Dave Brailsford were seen quickly leaving through the back door after over SEVEN HOURS of talks at Manchester United’s London offices.
The United co-owner, key Ineos lieutenant Sir Dave Brailsford and sporting director Dan Ashworth were spotted earlier heading into the building at 9.30am, with the topic of Erik Ten Hag’s future high on the agenda.
They did not leave until 4.45pm – with Ratcliffe refusing to offer any clarity to reporters and papparazzi gathered outside.
