Andre Radrizzani fires back at Angus Kinnear after wide-ranging Leeds interview - TBR Football 8/9/23

Leeds United CEO Angus Kinnear has given a wide-ranging this week and it looks like Andrea Radrizzani has heard enough.

The now former Leeds owner has seen Kinnear give an interview this week where a lot of topics were discussed, including the outgoings over the summer.

And after Kinnear gave a lot away, it seems that Radrizzani has now taken his turn to hit back.

Taking to social media platform X just now, Radrizzani seemed to be jumping on a number of fan comments on the interview by Kinnear.

Interestingly, it seems Radrizzani isn’t impressed with what the CEO has had to say and replying to one fan, the ex-Leeds supremo suggested that Kinnear should have taken more care over contracts.

And my good friend AK should have taken good responsibility of the contracts with exit clause which I have never read as for many others contracts and company. That’s why management is paid for !

Radrizzani also answered a few other posts from Leeds fans and in one he insisted he takes responsbility for some of the problems as owner.

However, it does seem he is far from impressed at what the CEO has had to say.

The amount of players who left has been a nightmare for Leeds really. Some left for next to nothing as well, which is a huge problem.

These responses from Radrizzani just show how the dynamic at Leeds is not working right now. Even though he has sold his stake in the club, it shows that what was happening before wasn’t right.

Quite how Leeds can put this right, remains to be seen. But the start to the season hasn’t been great at all and despite a few signings, Leeds look off it really.

A long season beckons really for Leeds. And this is just yet more turmoil to deal with.

The huge initial fee Leeds are set to receive for Crysencio Summerville’s move to West Ham — Leeds United News 31/7/24

-
Will Butcher West Ham United are closing in on a deal to sign Crysencio Summerville from Leeds United, and Ben Jacobs has shared how much Leeds will receive for the Dutchman. The 22-year-old has been strongly linked with the Elland Road exit door all summer and was targeted as the one big sale Leeds needed to make before the Profit & Sustainability Rules deadline this month. But instead, Leeds sold Archie Gray for £40m to Tottenham. Leeds have since sold five more players in the form of Diego Llorente, Marc Roca, Kris Klaesson and Charlie Cresswell – raking in around £60m in total. But more exits were always likely and Fabrizio Romano reported on Wednesday afternoon that West Ham had agreed personal terms with Summerville, and talks for a fee were ongoing with the Yorkshire side. Now, the story has moved on with multiple sources claiming a deal is done between Leeds and Angus Kinnear’s old club. The Dutchman is expected to sign a five-year at the London Stadium, until Jun...

Leeds United transfer state of play as Whites knock back low bid and assert wing pair stance — YEP 3/7/24

-
By Graham Smyth Leeds United are not actively looking to cash in on Crysencio Summerville and Willy Gnonto and believe any further outgoing transfer business will be done on their terms. The Whites, who sold Archie Gray to Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday for £40m, expect that there will be continued interest in wing pair Summerville and Gnonto as the summer transfer window progresses. Summerville has been a target for Premier League side Brighton and Hove Albion but their interest has not yet materialised into a bid. The Albion did, however, send a £30m proposal for Georginio Rutter, which Elland Road chiefs rejected. Rutter is not expected to try and force an exit this summer and appears settled at Leeds after a far more positive second season in English football. The sale of Gray has helped put Leeds into a position where they do not need to sell star players and can dictate any moves that do happen. Club sources say they are not actively looking to sell the likes of Summerville o...
