Leeds United owner Massimo Cellino has made it clear that he has no intention of selling the club in the near future.

The Italian owner returned to the Elland Road office on May 3 after serving a Football League ban due to a tax evasion conviction charge in his native country.

Speaking about his intentions for the Whites, Cellino said: "If in two seasons' time I'm not ready to take the club to the Premier League, I'm going to sell it.

"The club is not for sale, if we are not ready to be in the Premier League, I will sell it.

"To sell the club you need six months to do due diligence. What would we do for six months if I was selling the club?"
