Certain Leeds United fans are being cautious about the takeover due to previous experiences.
I'll echo my sentiments from when Cellino took over. I'm back the new owner but I remain cautious. I've been hurt enough times. #LUFC

First job for Andrea Radrizzani is to sign Garry Monk on a permanent basis.
