MERCEDES F1 chief Toto Wolff has been warned against investing in Manchester United.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wolff has a close relationship with Sir Jim Ratcliffe due to being business partners that both own a 33 per cent stake in Mercedes' F1 team.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The other third of the F1 team is owned by the car manufacturer itself.<\/p>\n

Ratcliffe is expected to lean heavily on his network when his expected 25 per cent stake in Manchester United goes through.<\/p>\n

Sir Dave Brailsford, who oversaw Ratcliffe's investment in cycling is expected to come in to manage the sporting direction of United and appoint a new sporting director.<\/p>\n

That's led to speculation that Wolff could also join the club in some capacity, given his success in managing Mercedes' F1 team.<\/p>\n

Two weeks ago at the Brazilian Grand Prix Wolff was asked about investing in the club by Sky Sports and said: "I have never aimed for trophy investments but I like the competitiveness of the Premier League.<\/p>\n

"Jim and Manchester United is a love story because he is born there.<\/p>\n

"Our personal relationship is strong and with Ola Kallenius [Mercedes-Benz chief executive], they call us the Three Amigos because we live in the no-nonsense world.<\/p>\n

"If we felt I could contribute then I would consider joining him at Manchester United."<\/p>\n

But Ex-F1 and Le Mans driver Mark Blundell has warned Wolff against investing in the club, saying it will be a lot harder to pull the club in the right direction compared to overseeing an F1 team.<\/p>\n

Blundell spent four seasons in F1 between 1991 and 1995, racing for McLaren, Ligier, Branham and Tyrrell.<\/p>\n

He said to OLBG: "I guess the Mercedes shareholders see him already and they're both part of the ownership situation. <\/p>\n

"Jim Ratcliffe has been looking at Man United for some time now, and maybe it fits. <\/p>\n

"Perhaps Toto wants to be involved in football. It's a different dynamic, and it'll be difficult to control 11 Lewis Hamiltons on the pitch!<\/p>\n

"Toto Wolff has been an incredible leader of Mercedes and he's taking the Grand Prix team to huge peaks. Perhaps he can bring that to the Man United team. <\/p>\n

"They're not a small club, though, and it'll take a lot of people to take it forward – and you can't always do that from the directors' box.''<\/p>\n

Ratcliffe's 25 per cent stake in Manchester United is expected to be confirmed by the club soon.<\/p>\n

But he may have to wait until mid-January for the takeover to be fully confirmed, with the Premier League expected to take six to eight weeks to confirm the deal.<\/p>\n
