It’s been a great day if you’re a Leeds United fan. Leeds United have ended 13 years of not owning their ground by repurchasing Elland Road today, and fans have been getting very excited indeed.
The clubs biggest deal in years shows that Andrea Radrizzani well and truly walks the walk after talking the talk, completing a deal worth around £20 million so that Leeds can finally call Elland Road home once again.

Let us know what you think. Is the Elland Road buy-back the best thing to happen to Leeds since those Champions League days? We certainly think so.
Class. Thank God Mad Massimo has gone and we seem to have a proper chairman. You never see him making a show of himself do you?
Better than any signing. Elland Road is Leeds once more.
Fantastic news, at last were home again, wasn’t to sure about the new boss but glad to say he’s putting his money where is mouth is ! Signing players , all I can say is as a season ticket holders , Hope for the PL at last , just need the missing fans to get behind us now.
Fantastic news, please please please redevelop Elland Road now Andrea, a new west stand and another tier above the Kop to take our capacity to over 50,000, sick of Wednesday and others bragging that there stadiums hold more, we deserve it, thanks Andrea, MOT.
Promotion would be the best thing to happen to us fans!!
Buying the ground back is great for the owners portfolio,
but my main interest is what we do to improve the squad.
We have a proper owner at last!!!
We have some stability at last!!
Roll on the first match!!
MOT!!!!
Thank you so much Andrea Radrizzani & team … now continue with the good work by building a squad capable of challenging for promotion. Up to now it’s looking really good.
