Leeds United owner speaks of his pride.
Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani has declared his pride at the Whites’ FIFA Fair Play award.
Leeds won the award for the decision from Marcelo Bielsa to allow Aston Villa to walk in a goal past them in the clash at Elland Road last season.
This had come after a melee between both teams after Leeds had scored a controversial goal.
Radrizzani made a nod to the club’s ‘Dirty Leeds’ reputation dating back decades and congratulated his team.
This is a nice honour for Leeds, and raises the profile of the club on a worldwide scale.
Leeds currently sit top of the Championship and are looking to win promotion after falling narrowly short last season.
Getting to the Premier League would be an even bigger achievement to be proud of.
