Britain's richest man Sir Jim Ratcliffe has announced that he is not interested in trying to buy Liverpool or Manchester United, and has instead set his sights on improving the fortunes of Ligue 1 outfit Nice as there is 'better value' in France than the Premier League.
Liverpool were put up for sale by Fenway Sports Group (FSG) on Monday, while there has also been speculation that the Glazer family could be willing to share their stake in United amid growing unrest among supporters.
However, Ratcliffe, who failed in a late bid to try to buy Chelsea earlier this year, has ruled himself out of the running to acquire Liverpool or United.
