Sir Dave Brailsford has opened up regarding his party's bid to buy Manchester United.
Brailsford works at Nice in Ligue 1 as part of Sir Jim Ratcliffe's ownership group of the club.
The 59-year-old will also be involved at Man United should Ratcliffe's INEOS prove to be the winning bidder.
Speaking to ITV Sport at the 2023 Tour de France, he said: Obviously we've been involved and it's something that we're very keen to do. It's not something we can discuss in detail, we've got to sign up to NDAs (non-disclosure agreements) and all the rest of it.
But it's an ongoing process and we'd very much like to do it. To be custodians of one of one of the biggest sporting teams, brands, in the world and trying to really support the team and go back to the success they deserve.
And also the fanbase. I've worked in Manchester for a long time, we saw the team become a global phenomenon, Team Sky have done the same. I know Manchester really well so you get a sense of what the club is all about and what the fans want. If we're part of the process, we hope to do that."
