Leeds United have already cleared first hurdle in face-to-face January transfer window talks

Selling your house will throw up those 11th-hour dilemmas when something needs fixing. Do you foot the bill yourself, keeping the property in decent condition before its changed hands, or do you refuse to pour any more of your hard-earned cash into a solution you won’t be around to enjoy?

Andrea Radrizzani and 49ers Enterprises would be forgiven for having a similar dilemma in the weeks approaching January’s transfer window. The Athletic first reported the American consortium’s option to take control before January 2024. They would be into the final 12 months of that deal when the next transfer window opens.

The clock is ticking on this deal to go through, though there may be room for renegotiation on both sides, there are only two transfer windows to go before it expires. If San Francisco 49ers’ investment arm really does want to seize control via this route, the jigsaw pieces have to fall into place sooner rather than later.
