Leeds United chairman Andrea Radrizzani has admitted he submitted an offer to buy Serie A side Salernitana in the past. Radrizzani has previously spoke of his intentions to purchase a second football club though has not had any success as of yet.
Salernitana were instead sold to another Italian businessman Danilo Iervolino, who completed his purchase of the club in January earlier this year just minutes before the deadline which allowed them to stay in Serie A. Radrizzani, meanwhile, is coming up to six years at Leeds next month; a period in which he has certainly overseen some good times and bad.
He has helped take Leeds back to the Premier League after a 16-year absence but their struggles over the last 18 months has given Radrizzani food for though in terms of how far he can take the club. Speaking to Corriere Della Sera, though, Radrizzani spoke of his Salernitana failure and his current thoughts on the ownership situation at Leeds.
