The Leeds manager is happy with the new investment.

Leeds United boss Garry Monk has been talking about the investment in the club from Andrea Radrizzani this week.

The Italian businessman took 50 per cent control of the club this week, after weeks of speculation.

Massimo Cellino has been looking for investment in the club for some time and finally he managed to secure the percentage in the club that he wanted.

The appointment of another head at the top of the snake might concern Monk, with management at Leeds always a major risk.

But Monk has been talking about the appointment to the press today, expressing his joy at the new investment.

He told the official Leeds United twitter account:

“The investment by Mr Radrizzani is positive news, we have been aware of it for a while and now it is official.

“In Mr Radrizzani’s statement, he clearly has a passion to drive the club forwards.

“We have met briefly and I am looking forward to meeting with both owners again next week.”

Leeds boss Monk would love to make some new additions this winter and the extra investment from the new partner will hopefully help them manage to bring in the new recruits that they deserve in their hopes to win promotion after a brilliant first half of the Championship season.

Leeds fans, like Monk, are hoping that this new appointment will be a positive for the club as they look to continue their good progress.
