Glasgow Loon Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Massimo Cellino talks to leedsunited.com on how pleased he is to bring in Andrea Radrizzani Speaking exclusively to LeedsUnited.com, Co-owner Massimo Cellino has commented on how pleased he is to see Andrea Radrizzani become his partner, and a 50% shareholder in Leeds United Football Club. “I have worked hard for the past three years for Leeds United, we are a massive club, and I feel the only way we can get better is for me to bring in a new partner”, stated Cellino on the news that a deal has been completed. Fellow Italian Radrizzani has been a key player in the sports media rights industry since he co-founded MP & Silva in 2004, and Mr Cellino believes this experience is just one of the qualities that his new partner will bring to the club. Mr Cellino added, “Andrea is young and brings a new energy with him, as well as having a good experience in the football media business, which is the future for all clubs. I feel that bringing Andrea in as a 50% shareholder to work with me is the best choice we could have made. We will continue building a strong and healthy football club for the future.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamond8 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Hard not to get excited about this Leeds team. Thought the young lad Vieira was outstanding last night as well as Ayling. MOT! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasgow Loon Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Well what a night that was. The best 1st half we have seen at ER for many a long year and long may it continue. We have been slow out the trap in the 1st half off games this season but not last night, whatever Monk said to them before KO worked as they were fired up and ready to put on a performance of very high quality football. All it needed was the goals as plenty chances were created but not taken until the 11th corner of the 1st half when Wood rose and headed home Hernandez's corner. Very hard to pick a MOM as they all didnt put a foot wrong. I eventually went for Vieira who just shaded from Ayling in my view. Think we may have found our 4th centre half in Ayling as he calm and collected playing along side Bartley, they did play together for Arsenal in their youth days which will have helped. Coyle really impressed me again, he gets better every time I see him and is FAR better than Byram in my view. Berardi had Ince in his back pocket the whole game. Hernandez and Roofe were a joy to watch with some fancy flick's and back heels and are a joy to watch when going forward. Doukara was like chalk and cheese from Monday night where he didnt seem interested but was really up for it last night, as Monk said on BBC Radio Leeds interview he told Doukara he owed the team one after monday night and the douk certainly did that. Wood ran his heart out chasing down and fully deserved his goal as he said in a interview Bartley told him to go front post and Bartley would go back post for the corner. Roll on Barnsley next saturday tea-time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgow Loon Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 From Radrizzani press conference this morning:- New Leeds United co-owner Andrea Radrizzani outlined his plans today by promising to create “a modern structure, a modern club” and prime Leeds for promotion to the Premier League. Speaking publicly for the first time since acquiring a 50 per cent stake in United, Radrizzani said he had invested with the immediate aim of “bringing more stability” to Elland Road, describing the past decade as a catalogue of “roller coaster experiences.” The 42-year-old Italian finalised a co-ownership deal with Massimo Cellino in December, ending seven months of negotiations to buy into the club. He and Cellino appeared together alongside each other at a press conference at Elland Road this morning, less than 24 hours after a rousing 1-0 win over Derby County moved Leeds to third in the Championship table. “It couldn’t be a better start for me,” Radrizzani said. “It was a beautiful evening, a lot of emotion. I knew what being a football owner was in the last 60 seconds because they were never ending! “I’m honoured to have the opportunity here and I’m grateful to Massimo for giving me the opportunity. This club have been unlucky with roller-coaster experiences and different owners in the last decade so the first objective in my ownership and management will definitely be to bring more stability to the club. Radrizzani and Massimo Cellino share a selfie at Elland Road Radrizzani and Massimo Cellino share a selfie at Elland Road “I’ll bring this club (forward) gradually to be a modern structure, a modern club and be ready for when we are back in the top league.” Radrizzani said he had harboured ambitions of investing in a football club for many years but had not intended to pursue a deal “in this particular moment of my life” until he became aware of Cellino’s intention to sell a stake in Leeds last May. Radrizzani’s investment deal includes a clause which could see him acquire full control of United at the end of this season but he said Cellino had shown no desire to exit Elland Road completely when discussions between them first began. He also revealed that he was kept in the loop by Cellino about proposed changes to the coaching staff and playing squad during the summer as talks continued. Garry Monk was named as head coach two months after Radrizzani and Cellino opened negotiations. Cellino admitted that a split of authority was a “new experience” for him but Radrizzani, who built his reputation selling sports media rights, said: “So far we never had any issues to decide. Since May, even though I wasn’t a shareholder of the club, he always involved me in any important decisions about the building of the team. He was really fair to me in this period. Until now we never had a problem. “Now we really are partners so we will start to have different agendas and discussions about the progression of the club in the future but we can easily manage Leeds together if we give responsibility and delegate to the management. We have a good team here. “From the beginning it was clear to me that Massimo didn’t want to sell the club entirely. He has strong passion for Leeds and he’s a fighter. He wants to do something good for the club before he gives up. He would never give up the club. “We found a way to start together and hopefully to continue together. For me it’s a perfect solution because I have time to learn about the club and football gradually, not in a rush. I start now and I have time to learn and be ready for next season.” Cellino first bought a majority share in Leeds in April 2014 and has dealt with endless controversy at Elland Road. A stable season, however, has given United a serious chance to rejoining the Premier League for the first since their relegation in 2004. Cellino, nonetheless, said: “It was the right time to take someone on board, someone who comes from my country. If we have to fight we fight better in Italian! “This is the best thing I could do for the club because the numbers in the Championship are a little bit scary. It takes a lot of money to fix this club. With two owners maybe it’s easier to do it than by myself. “Andrea has good experience in marketing, televised business and he’s got a good background. He’s 20 years (younger) than me. That’s important because I’m getting a little bit old. For us he gives a longer future than you have with me.” Leeds’ win over Derby strengthened their hold on a play-off position and also put the club in contention for a top-two finish, midway through the January transfer window. Monk said after the game that he was looking for two signings this month to give his squad the “best chance” during the Championship run-in. Asked about transfers, Cellino admitted he had told Radrizzani not to invest immediate funds for players, saying: “I don’t let him invest nothing yet. We are 50-50. I told him ‘don’t spend nothing.’ “We have many players. Don’t get in a mess. Sometimes we want to have too much. As owners we want to participate in games and sometimes it’s a disaster. "The team is playing good, they’re growing. They should get better and better. Sometimes buying players, you think it makes a team stronger but maybe we break it up. Sometimes spending money can hurt the club.” Radrizzani said: “We are aligned completely, me, Massimo and Garry on what we need. We don’t want to touch the balance of the team. "The performance on the pitch and also inside the locker room, everything is working really well. We are looking at potentially one or two players who Garry mentioned. We’re working on that.” Read more at: http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/sport/football/leeds-united/leeds-united-co-owner-andrea-radrizzani-vows-to-modernise-whites-for-premier-league-tilt-1-8334750 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
