British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe has expressed an interest in buying United after Tesla founder Elon Musk said a Twitter post in which he said he planned to buy the club was part of "a long-running joke". The club's owners, the American Glazer family, are under pressure with United sitting bottom of league after two games of the new season."Speculation is mounting about a potential change of ownership or new investors at Manchester United. Whilst supporters have called for change, of course this has to be the right change," Must said in a statement on Twitter."Any prospective new owner or investor has to be committed to the culture, ethos and best traditions of the club.

They have to be willing to invest to restore United to former glories, and that investment must be real new money spent on the playing side and the stadium."United have lost both their league games under new boss Erik ten Hag and host bitter rivals Liverpool on Monday.
