What are the key figures from the accounts?
Leeds posted an overall loss of £62 million during the campaign, with total administration costs for the club running to a huge £108 million.
The wage bill was £78 million, while they handed out £20 million in promotion bonuses.
Turnover at Elland Road did leap to £54 million, from £48 million the year prior. This was projected to hit £56 million before the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Elsewhere, the accounts confirmed the £23 million investment from 49ers Enterprises, which is the investment arm of the San Francisco 49ers.
Leeds also took out £43 million in loan funding after the end of the accounting period.
Also of note was their increased commercial revenue, which was boosted by £15 million of merchandise sales.
There was also a rebate of £7 million paid out to broadcasters.
What has been said?
Leeds managing director Angus Kinnear said: “Despite the unprecedented operational and financial challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, the group won the EFL Championship by 10 points whilst successfully maintaining the group’s financial integrity with record commercial growth.”
Kinnear added: “The primary risk facing the group remains the divisional status of the club’s first team due to the impact on key revenue streams, however we remain confident we have built a commercial model to fund a technical set-up which can ensure Premier League retention.”
What is the state of play at Leeds?
