FOOTBALL Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe's wealth has fallen by £6.473billion in the last year, according to this year's Sunday Times Rich List.

Ratcliffe, founder of petrochemicals giant INEOS, has seen his fortune reduced from £23.519bn 12 months ago to £17.046bn to lie in seventh place in the latest list, which charts the wealth of the 350 richest people in the UK.

The 72-year-old bought a 27.70 per cent stake in the Old Trafford club for £1.25bn in February last year and has since increased his holding to 28.94 per cent.

Having taken charge of football operations, he has since presided over a controversial cost-cutting exercise as he attempts to revive United's fortunes.
