Leeds United’s potential takeover by the owners of the San Francisco 49ers could reportedly be completed by the end of the week.
The future of Leeds’ ownership has been uncertain ever since the relegation from the Premier League was confirmed. Leeds finished 19th in the English top flight to drop down to the Championship after three seasons in the top flight.
An agreement had reportedly been reached prior to Leeds’ relegation that would see a takeover completed to 49ers Enterprises for around £400million. However, following the result of the season, negotiations have been taking place over a new - and lower - price.
