Former Leeds United captain Lucas Radebe is part of a consortium that is looking to buy a share in the West Yorkshire club.
The 44-year old South African has revealed on his personal website - lucasradebe.com - that he is eager to get involved again with the Whites with the view of helping guide them back into the Premier League.
"Following recent speculation, I can confirm that I am part of a consortium which has submitted a preliminary indication of interest regarding the acquisition of a stake in Leeds United Football Club," the statement read.
"We hope to continue our recent discussions confidentially with the current shareholders and the board. We would like the opportunity to explain both the substance of our proposal, and our strategy for working with GFH Capital to continue the re-building process at the club.
"Leeds United has a special place in my heart. Ever since I retired I have been considering ways to get involved at the club, working at board level with an equity interest would be the pinnacle.
"It is my dream scenario. I would not have become involved if I didn't think our consortium would be able to help give the club a chance to go back up to the Premier League where it belongs, and to keep it there.
"I am hopeful we can find a way forward and make progress."
