NBA star Larry Nance Jr has given assurances to Leeds United supporters that 49ers Enterprises will do everything in their power to give them what they deserve. News broke on Friday evening of a deal being agreed between 49ers Enterprises and Andrea Radrizzani for the full purchase of the Whites.
There are still details to iron out at this point but the takeover is expected to be completed sooner rather than later, bringing an end to Radrizzani’s six-year stint as chairman. Nance is an investor in 49ers Enterprises and he confirmed his involvement in the deal to buy Leeds earlier this week with numerous tweets to supporters.
The New Orleans Pelicans player, who has previously played for Cleveland Cavaliers and LA Lakers and counts LeBron James as a former teammate, has been tweeting since Friday’s news broke, too, underling his delight to have a stake at Elland Road. Nance has also stressed the group’s desire to please the club’s supporters as they prepare for the new Championship season.
