Leeds to be sold if they miss out on promotion?

Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani is reportedly considering the possible sale of the Championship outfit.

The Yorkshire giants are attempting to win promotion to the Premier League, and the club currently sit in third position in the standings with a game in hand.

Securing a place in the top flight may lead to Radrizzani remaining at Elland Road, but according to the Daily Mail, major changes would have to be made if Leeds miss out on a spot in the first two or winning the playoffs.

The report claims that head coach Marcelo Bielsa would likely depart the club due to his size of his wages, while significant player sales would need to be made before the start of the new campaign.

Radrizzani would also be prepared to sell Leeds if their business plan for the following season is not sustainable, with the report adding that the club's owner has effectively gambled on promotion in May.
