Football finance expert Kieran Maguire believes Leeds United's proposed takeover with the investment arm of the San Francisco 49ers is unlikely to result in a multi-sport model. Current owner Andrea Radrizzani has agreed a deal with the American organisation for his shares in the club.
Maguire believes relegation could cost the outgoing Whites owner in the region of £230-280 million as Radrizzani bares the brunt of the club's Premier League tenure coming to an end.
Maguire told The Price of Football podcast: "Yes, it would appear that Leeds United's majority shareholder Andrea Radrizzani has accepted an offer from the San Francisco 49ers investment arm. Now, lots of people think that therefore we are going to have a multi-sport business here.
