Saying Cellino has pulled out of the sale to The Italian guy.

Make of that what you will.

I'll pop link on.

Cessione congelata. Massimo Cellino nei mesi scorsi ha rilevato l'intero pacchetto azionario del Leeds diventando a tutti gli effetti il proprietario del club inglese. A Cellino quindi anche il 20% che apparteneva ad un gruppo arabo. Voci sulla cessione a Radrizzani di MP Silva, ma al momento l'ex presidente del Cagliari ha deciso di non trattare più la vendita del Leeds. La sensazione è che se dovesse vendere lo farebbe a gruppi più consistenti. A questo punto si allontana anche l'ipotesi Brescia per Cellino, una soluzione vagliata in estate e che è tornata di moda nei giorni scorsi, ma è una pista destinata a spegnersi. Il Leeds resta a Cellino, che non comprerà il Brescia...

Frozen sale. Massimo Cellino in recent months has acquired all shares of Leeds becoming in effect the owner of the English club. A Cellino therefore the 20% that belonged to an Arab group. Items on sale to Radrizzani MP Silva, but at the moment the former Cagliari president decided not to treat more the sale of Leeds. The feeling is that if you were to sell well as at larger groups. At this point also deviates the Brescia assumptions for Cellino, a solution screened in the summer and that it is back in fashion in recent days, but it is a track destined to fade. Leeds remains in Cellino, who will not buy the Brescia ...

Agree with the above... about time we had stable ownership, debated many times over the years over owners... very sad that Leeds fans can;t have a convo about our team without talking about owners... still, we are where we are....

I think we just need to wait and see now. It seems he's won the race. Now he needs to get off Twitter and concentrate on the club. LUFC have their own Twitter account!

I'll judge him on how he performs. After Cellino I think most people will be cautious about backing him unconditionally.

Only time will tell. Talk is deal is signed and they are just ironing out a few bits.

I guess this is the reason the FA have held off their punishment of him.

Am told its 50% with the rest if we don't go up, if we go up he wants to stay involved.

So, if we're staying here till next season I hope we don't get in the play off's, a bit off a sod if we stay here and the season tickets don't make on it!..

I'm told full takeover. Paid in stages - but 100% Cellino out.

Hope so.

Who is telling you guys?

Obviously both cannot be accurate.

I'm reporting what I'm hearing through those who say they are in the know on twitter.

I've been assured the deal was done last month and now it's tying up loose ends. I was told it is a 100% staged takeover.

I can't say if it's true or not because I don't know. However I do believe those saying it have links to those who know what is happening.

Think about it. MC is probably going to be banned at some stage in this country. He might even go down in Italy.

If he does stay on I can't see it being any where near 50% for very long.

Hopefully it gets resolved soon and we can look forward to talking about football whilst the new owners sort out the finances and the ground,etc.

It seems to fit in with the last time Cellino's mouth was in overdrive!..

When was the last time Cellino butted into anything around the play ground, he's not been seen or heard from for weeks, something is keeping him quiet!..
