Leeds United chairman Andrea Radrizzani linked with takeover at another Italian club

Leeds United chiarman Andrea Radrizzani has been linked with a takeover at recently relegated Italian side Sampdoria. The Whites chief has been linked with a takeover at Champions League semi-finalists Inter Milan as part of a consortium, but could turn his attention elsewhere according to reports in Italy.

Il Secolo, via ClubDoria46, claim Radrizzani could take over the financially stricken Sampdoria but there's a race against time. The Whites owner is expected to sell his shares at Elland Road this summer with 49ers Enterprises reportedly set to up their stake once more.

The report says Radrizzani will get £420m for the Whites if they stay in the Premier League, and £150m if they don’t. La Doria are at risk of bankruptcy which would require a quick turnaround in order to avoid any potential penalties for next season.
