Lucas Radebe has tonight confirmed that he is part of a consortium bidding to buy a shareholding in Leeds United. The former player has responded to claims that he is involved with a group who failed last week with a £7million offer for a controlling interest in the club.
Current Leeds owner GFH Capital rejected the bid out of hand, describing it as ‘risible’, and played down speculation that former player Radebe was backing the approach.
