INEOS owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe could team up with another party to buy Manchester United.
The Manchester-born billionaire wants to get his hands on the Old Trafford club.
With the Glazer family looking to sell, Ratcliffe's bid is presently being eclipsed by one from the Qatari royal family.
Per The Mirror, the Qataris will launch an improved offer in the coming days for the club.
The Mail adds that Ratcliffe is looking at partnering with others to up his financial might in these stakes.
He did indicate in an interview with the Wall Street Journal that he did not want to overpay for United.
