Entrepreneur Thomas Zilliacus launched a proposal for Manchester United following offers from ʙɪʟʟɪᴏɴᴀɪʀᴇ Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Prince Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani.
Prince Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani and ʙɪʟʟɪᴏɴᴀɪʀᴇ Faire Sir Jim Ratcliffe both made offers for Manchester United before businessman Thomas Zilliacus put forth his own. In order to fund the club, Thomas Zilliacus, the co-founder of the novaM Group, and a Finnish businessman hope to solicit donations from Manchester United supporters. He stated, “The club is currently worth less than $3.9B (£3.18B).” This implies that a supporter of the team who makes a donation will do so for less than $6,000. (4.8B). (In pounds) My team will contribute 50% of the required funds to acquire the team, and we’ll persuade the club’s supporters to contribute the other 50%. At the time, $3 was the minimum donation required from each fan. Fan justice is the foundation of my proposal.

Mr. Zilliacus pledged that if Man United’s takeover is successful, the team in charge of the organization will pay attention to suggestions made by supporters via the team’s application. The “Red Devils” were formed with input from all of the supporters.
Prior to being given the position of Sales Director for Asia-Pacific, Zilliacus served as Nokia’s Communications Director in Singapore. The British media hardly acknowledges Mr. Zilliacus’ wealth. According to Mirror, the Finnish businessman’s resources are comparable to those of his two competitors, Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani.
Mr. Zilliacus served as the HJK club’s president from 1982 to 1986. In 2012, he sold the top hockey team in Finland, Jokerit, to a Russian investor.
The second attempt to ᴘᴜʀᴄʜᴀsᴇ Manchester United had been postponed, according to two investors, Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani, according to the British media on March 23. The deadline for interested parties to submit bids for Manchester United has not been extended, according to The Guardian. But by the end of this week, ʙɪʟʟɪᴏɴᴀɪʀᴇ Ratcliffe is anticipated to present new pricing.
The Times reports that £4.5B was the highest offer made in the initial bid. Many insiders are of the opinion that Ratcliffe and Qatar won’t be able to meet the Glazers’ asking price. Manchester United’s owners sought to recoup more than 6 ʙɪʟʟɪᴏɴ pounds from the sale of the English team.
The 3-1 FA Cup quarterfinal victory over Fulham on March 19 resulted in a record fine for Manchester United from the English Football Association (FA) for unethical conduct. When Fulham’s Willian stopped the ball just above the goal line following Jadon Sancho’s shot in the ring, referee Chris Kavanagh initially only gave the Red Devils a corner. The FA accused Manchester United players of ʙʀᴇᴀᴋɪɴɢ the rules by approaching the official.
“Manchester United FC were charged when their players approached the referee in the 71st minute of their FA Cup c.l.a.s.h with Fulham FC on Sunday 19 March,” an FA spokesman said.
“Manchester United FC is accused of failing to ensure that its players conduct themselves in an orderly and appropriate manner.” Manchester United FC has until March 27 to reply to the allegations.
Referee Kavanagh awarded Manchester United 11 meters after watching the video and summoned Fulham coach Marco Silva, two players, Willian, and Aleksandar Mitrovic. As a result of punching and insulting referee Kavanagh, Mitrovic will miss one game.
The English Premier League and lower division clubs were fined roughly £1.3 million this week, according to SunSport, for on-field altercations and insulting referees. For three prior infractions of failing to supervise its players, which occurred in games against Newcastle and Chelsea in October as well as Crystal Palace last month, United was fined £137,000.
A further £75,000 fine could be assessed for a fourth offense. This would equal the punishment meted out to Manchester City for surrounding referee Anthony Taylor during their victory over Arsenal as the most penalties ever assessed for player misconduct.
