Leeds chairman terms Project Big Picture a disgrace

Leeds United chairman Andrea Radrizzani described the proposals aimed at radically changing the Premier League’s structures and finances as a “disgrace” and said England’s top-flight clubs must remain united to be successful.

Premier League clubs Wednesday rejected “Project Big Picture” plans put forward by Liverpool and Manchester United that would have increased funding for the 72 Football League teams but also included special voting rights for the biggest sides in the Premier League.

Radrizzani said if money was the issue, clubs could discuss ways to get better value in international markets.
