Leeds United’s summer can finally begin following the news that a takeover agreement has been reached between 49ers Enterprises and Andrea Radrizzani. The purchase of the club is still to be completed and is now in the hands of the EFL, who will be putting a host of 49ers Enterprises members under the microscope.
In the meantime, though, it seems Leeds will be able to push on with their preparations for the new Championship season which gets underway in just eight weeks’ time. Leeds would have liked more time to prepare for their return to the second tier, but work is already underway it seems when it comes to putting plans in place.
A head coach is the priority and United can now focus their energy on finding the right man over the next week or two. Recruitment can also be taken off the backburner with the takeover set to have big implications on the business Leeds can do this summer.
