Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani claims Derby County selling their Pride Park Stadium to a sister company is worse than ‘Spygate’

Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani has reportedly claimed that Derby County selling their stadium to a sister company is worse then Leeds sending a scout to the Rams’ training ground.


Derby sold their Pride Park Stadium to owner Mel Morris for £80million in April 2019, before leasing the stadium back.

There is some bad blood between Leeds and Derby following the ‘Spygate’ scandal where Whites head coach Marcelo Bielsa admitted to instructing a scout to watch Frank Lampard’s Derby side train before a Championship clash in January.


Leeds won the game 2-0 but Derby ended up having the last laugh as they came out on top in the play-off semi-finals earlier this month, winning 4-3 on aggregate.


Some Derby players even celebrated using pretend binoculars, mimicking a spying gesture.

However, the war of words have continued with Radrizzani seemingly taking the opportunity to have a dig at Derby when speaking at the Financial Times’ Business of Football Summit on Tuesday.


According to respected journalist Raphael Honigstein, who was at the event, claimed Radrizzani said: “Selling your stadium to a sister company is more cheating than sending a scout to see (Derby’s) training.”














Derby are one win away from playing in the Premier League football next season.
