The lack of progress in recent weeks regarding 45ers Enterprises' takeover of Leeds United is not the fault of the EFL, according to Kieran Maguire. The football finance expert has put the blame at the door of either the prospective new owners or the outgoing owner Andrea Radrizzani.
Leeds United are currently at a standstill until the takeover is completed. A new manager is set to be appointed following the departure of Sam Allardyce, with former Norwich City boss Daniel Farke tipped to be in the Elland Road dugout when the new season kicks off in just over a month's time.
There is an expectation that some players will be departing following relegation, with a number of star names already the subject of transfer speculation as top-flight clubs look to pounce on their prize assets. That could, ultimately, mean the new manager will have plenty to do in terms of recruitment this summer as he looks to put together a competitive group capable of competing for promotion.
