Sir Jim Ratcliffe is this weekend set to attend his first Manchester United match since agreeing a partial takeover of the club.
The billionaire has agreed to buy a 25 per cent stake in the Premier League outfit and, barring any late change in schedule, is due to attend Sunday's match against Tottenham at Old Trafford according to PA.
The deal is still awaiting ratification, but Ratcliffe and his team have wasted no time getting to know the club as his INEOS group prepare to take responsibility for footballing operations at United.
The 71-year-old and Sir Dave Brailsford, INEOS' director of sport, visited Old Trafford and United's Carrington training ground last week.
The pair met with men's team manager Erik ten Hag and women's team boss Marc Skinner, along with members of different teams and backroom staff.
The INEOS delegation also met with wider club staff at Old Trafford and attended an all-staff meeting as they get to better know United and the challenge at hand.
Brailsford has been at all three matches since the deal was announced on Christmas Eve, with INEOS Sport chief executive Jean Claude Blanc joining him at Monday's FA Cup third round 2-0 win against Wigan.
