Financial media company Bloomberg claims Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani is among a group of investors keen on buying Italian side Inter Milan. The Whites owner, who was born in Milan, is said to be part of an investment group plotting a €1 billion takeover.
It's widely expected the current Whites owner will relinquish his controlling stake at Elland Road this summer, with 49ers Enterprises expected to take over his stake in the club. The American group already own 44 per cent of the club, having upped their stake up from 15 per cent and then to 37 per cent in recent years.
Bahrain-based Investcorp are also reportedly a potential bidder for Inter, having failed with a bid to buy rivals AC Milan last year. The report claims any proceeds from the sale of Leeds United could be used by Radrizzani’s Aser Ventures in a deal to purchase the Italian giants.
