Leeds United Super Fans react as Radrizzani is spotted at PSG match

Leeds United fans are speculating what could be happening behind the scenes after Andrea Radrizzani was spotted at Paris Saint-Germain’s win over RB Leipzig on Tuesday.
Radrizzani was spotted in the crowd at the Parc des Princes as PSG won 3-2 in the Champions League fixture, sat behind PSG and Brazil legend Ronaldinho.
Radrizzani is known to have a relationship with PSG’s Qatari owner Nasser al-Khelaifi and that led to takeover speculation surrounding QSI prior to the 49ers’ investment at Elland Road.
While some fans are thinking that a QSI takeover may still be on the cards, some are more worried that Radrizzani was in Paris in order to discuss the future of some of Leeds’ star players.
One suggested that if Raphinha is going to PSG, £120million should seal the deal while another said that he “may be watching [Julian] Draxler”.
Here is what our panel of Super Fans had to say:
It’s likely that Radrizzani was simply at PSG due to his relationship with the French club’s ownership.
If you were offered the chance to fly into Paris and watch Lionel Messi play in the Champions League, you’d do it, wouldn’t you?
We doubt PSG are looking at any of our players, to be honest.
While Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha are stunning performers, PSG are clearly after more world-renown names than those currently impressing at Elland Road right now.
In other Leeds United news, a new deal for this fringe player is on the cards after what Radrizzani said.
