49ers Enterprises will want global empire at Leeds United after £2billion news
Leeds United are their own little empire, those who have followed the club have done so for their entire lives and nothing will change that – Premier League or not.
The Whites currently sit one point off the Premier League relegation zone and if things do not improve soon enough, the Championship will start creeping up on them.
The 49ers Enterprises have had their full takeover of the club lined up for months now, and they will also have their own goals regardless of where the club is next season.
American ownership is really coming under the spotlight at the minute in the Premier League.
Nine clubs are currently fully or part-owned by Americans, with that figure growing with each passing season it seems, Bournemouth the latest in a long line.
Ian Herbert of the Daily Mail has recently shared that America is propping up the Premier League with growing influence through ownership and a £2billion TV deal with NBC over six years.
The red, white and blue has been paying big money for Premier League clubs to play pre-season games there over the years, with that likely going to include Leeds this summer if they stay up.
There is the proof that the Premier League is so much more than just England.
With American ownership coming in the summer, the 49ers Enterprises will be looking to extend this Leeds empire to the global stage, and that should come immediately.
Staying in the Premier League will speed that goal up, but it has been reported recently that they want to get the club worth up to £1billion in the future.
With deals such as the £2billion spent on the Premier League from NBC just to broadcast the games, imagine what gates this takeover will be able to open.
A new global empire is on the cards at Elland Road, and it could happen sooner rather than later.
