Former Nice boss Adrian Ursea offers encouragement that Sir Jim Ratcliffe's investment will boost Manchester United's spending power

Former Nice manager Adrian Ursea believes that Sir Jim Ratcliffe will have a hugely positive impact at Manchester United and will significantly boost the club's spending power.

It is anticipated that Ratcliffe's £1.3billion investment in United, for a 25 per cent stake of the club, will be confirmed next week.

However, it may be another two months before the investment is ratified by the Premier League. United have already confirmed that chief executive Richard Arnold is leaving the club, while there have been suggestions that football director John Murtough could also depart.
