DateStageRaised FromRaisedValuationRev. MultipleDeal Summary
Dec-24Strategic investmentINEOS$100M$5BManchester United Football Club Limited, listed as Manchester United plc (NYSE: MANU), is a premier English soccer club with a global fan base generating revenue from sponsorship, merchandising, broadcasting, and matchday activities. In December 2023, INEOS chairman Sir Jim Ratcliffe agreed to acquire 25% of the club's Class B shares from the Glazer family and up to 25% of Class A shares via tender offer at $33 per share, implying a full club valuation of $5.4 billion. The deal included an additional $300 million investment into the club for infrastructure, particularly Old Trafford, with INEOS taking responsibility for football operations. The transaction completed in February 2024 after regulatory approvals from the Premier League and Football Association, with Ratcliffe securing 25% of Class A shares through the tender and investing $200 million for additional shares, reaching approximately 27.7% ownership in both share classes. A further $100 million investment was committed by December 31, 2024, for Old Trafford upgrades. The deal valued the club at around $5.4 billion based on the $33/share price, below initial $6 billion expectations amid a competitive bidding process that saw Qatari bids withdraw. Ratcliffe's involvement aims to enhance on-pitch performance and facilities, leveraging INEOS Sport's expertise from ownership of OGC Nice and other teams.
