Red Bull to table opening offer for Leeds

Red Bull are ready to make an opening bid for Leeds United.

The Daily Star says Red Bull are poised to make a £60m bid for Leeds in the hope of seizing control of the club from controversial Italian Massimo Cellino.

Red Bull representatives held talks with Cellino at Elland Road last Thursday and further negotiations are planned for later this month.

Two high ranking bosses from Red Bull even travelled to Yorkshire last month to watch Leeds' home game with Wolves - without Cellino even knowing they were at the game.

The duo sat just a matter of yards from the Leeds president to sample the atmosphere and level of support at the Championship outfit.
