Prospective Leeds United owner Massimo Cellino has claimed he has felt ‘humiliated’ during his attempted takeover of the club.
The Cagliari chief has injected funds into the English club over the past two months, confirming that he has paid wages and funded the team’s debts.
The 57-year-old is still not in charge at Elland Road however, with the Football League meeting tomorrow to discuss his potential takeover – pondering whether, with a 15-month prison sentence for false accounting, he passes the ‘Fit and Proper Persons Test’.
And after Leeds’ 4-2 defeat to Reading on Tuesday, Cellino has admitted to an increasing sense of frustration.
“I have been humiliated quite enough so far. At this point I wonder why I have been treated so badly after paying the salaries and debts over the past two months,” he told The Guardian.
“I will wait until a decision by the League. If I am not accepted, I will go away silently like I came.
“I am too old to fight wars which are not mine.”
