New Man Utd owner net worth compared to Newcastle United, Man City & Chelsea as takeover makes next step

Manchester United have had another boost in their takeover saga after the Premier League and Football Association gave the green light for Sir Jim Ratcliffe to continue with his minority investment. The British billionaire has had the seal of approval to continue with his planned 25 percent purchase of the club, which is expected to be completed by the end of this month.

The Sunday Times 2023 Rich List reports that Ratcliffe is second in the list, up from 27th in the previous year. His current net worth is £29.68 billion, up a staggering £23.61 billion from 2022. Combined with the reported net worth of the Glazer family — which is $10 billion (£7.96bn) according to Forbes — United's overall owner net worth is set to stand head and shoulders above the vast majority of their Premier League rivals.
