Leeds boss McDermott keen for crunch Cellino talks

Leeds United boss Brian McDermott is planning talks with prospective new club owner Massimo Cellino.

Cellino is awaiting Football League approval to complete his takeover of the Yorkshire club, but has already introduced himself to McDermott.

"From what I can gather he's coming to the game against Brighton. Then hopefully we'll sit down and have a conversation, have a meal together," said McDermott.

"We've had one meeting already a couple of weeks ago but for me now this is important. The only thing that concerns me is trying to be Leeds United manager for as long as I can, and for us to be successful."
