Under 49ers Enterprises’ ownership, Leeds United’s financial future appears to be much more promising.
This is made even more apparent in light of information that surfaced on Wednesday, November 1, indicating that the Whites could receive a large windfall as part of a new deal that the Premier League is expected to reveal.
For Sky News on November 1, Mark Kleinman stated that a £915 million “New Deal” for English football would be put to a vote later this month.
If approved, a portion of that over £1 billion would be distributed to the 72 EFL clubs over a six-year period. The payout would begin at £88 million and increase to £190 million in the 2028–2029 season.
According to the source, there is “a mutual desire to conclude” the talks as soon as possible. An announcement is scheduled for November 21st, following a shareholders’ meeting.
The 49ers will have more money, assuming everything goes according to plan, to hopefully reinvest in the team and aid in their efforts to return to the Premier League.
The American supporters may anticipate significantly larger revenues whenever they return to the top flight, largely because of negotiations for TV rights.
For the time being, though, circumstances at Elland Road should remain pleasant and stable because to the anticipated guarantee of progressively greater payouts each year as Leeds is in the Championship.
With their first transfer window following Andrea Radrizzani’s dismissal, the 49ers demonstrated their seriousness. It is now hoped that they return in January to strengthen Daniel Farke’s quest for a prompt Premier League comeback.
Even if Leeds does not win this season, the owners will still receive a sizable sum to help cover any losses.
