Leeds owner Radrizzani blasts Liverpool, Man Utd over Project Big Picture: Really a DISGRACE!

Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani has blasted rivals Liverpool over their Project Big Picture push.

Liverpool were the drivers of the scheme, supported by Manchester United.

"I believe what happened is really a disgrace, and for many reasons," Radrizzani told The Times.

"I would like to remind the clubs that tried to do this via the back door and in a non-transparent way that the value of their clubs has grown significantly, perhaps four or five times their investment, since they bought thanks to the fantastic job of the Premier League executive and also thanks to the union of the clubs working together.

"The success of the Premier League is driven by this unity and the success of the clubs in working together, so if this is attacked and someone is trying to dismantle it we need to strongly defend it."
