<p>Toto Wolff, the manager of Mercedes Formula One, has hinted that investing in rival Manchester United with co-owner Jim Ratcliffe might be difficult given his backing of Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola.</p>
<p>Ratcliffe, the millionaire head of Ineos and a native of Manchester, is about to acquire a 25% ownership in the Premier League team.<img decoding=”async” class=”alignnone wp-image-267438″ src=”https://www.theindiaprint.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/theindiaprint.com-unveiled-the-second-intro-video-for-bharateeyudu-2-starring-kamal-haasan-download-.jpg” alt=”theindiaprint.com unveiled the second intro video for bharateeyudu 2 starring kamal haasan download” width=”1268″ height=”886″ srcset=”https://www.theindiaprint.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/theindiaprint.com-unveiled-the-second-intro-video-for-bharateeyudu-2-starring-kamal-haasan-download-.jpg 269w, https://www.theindiaprint.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/theindiaprint.com-unveiled-the-second-intro-video-for-bharateeyudu-2-starring-kamal-haasan-download–150×105.jpg 150w” sizes=”(max-width: 1268px) 100vw, 1268px” title=”Toto Wolff, the boss of Mercedes, declares, "I'm a Guardiola fan," while discussing investing in Manchester United 3″></p>
<p>When asked whether he would be drawn to the British driver, Austrian driver Wolff, who also shares ownership of the Mercedes team, refrained from commenting on any potential immediate engagement.</p>
<p>When the subject was posed to him on Sky Sports television, he said, “Here we go.”</p>
<p>Ratcliffe is “such a clever person,” according to Wolff, who added that if there was anything Ratcliffe could do, “but no, that’s very far away,” he would be prepared to talk.</p>
<p>“I support the Premier League.” It’s the hardest atmosphere, in my opinion. Since I like Pep Guardiola, I suppose that is incompatible.</p>
<p>Guardiola attended both the British Grand Prix this year and the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix last year as a guest of Mercedes.</p>
<p>Wolff remarked on Formula One’s “Beyond the Grid” podcast last year, “We didn’t know each other but when I heard him talking, it was like my sentences, the same approach— and he said the same about me.”</p>
<p>“In the end, human management is what matters most, and (he is) someone I will definitely include in my future endeavors since we just clicked.”</p>
<p>At Yas Marina, Wolff was also seen with Guardiola, carrying a Manchester City jersey with Toto on the back.</p>
