He feels soul has been lost and criticises stadium planFormer striker says club rejected his offer of help
Eric Cantona has accused Sir Jim Ratcliffe of trying to “destroy” Manchester United and said the minority owner rejected his offer to help rebuild the club.
Cantona is considered one of United’s greatest footballers after playing for them for five years until summer 1997. On Saturday Cantona was at FC United of Manchester, which was founded by disaffected Manchester United fans in May 2005 in protest at Malcolm Glazer’s leveraged purchase of United, which loaded about £500m of debt on the club.
