Gulf director quits Leeds United board
Alrayes stepped down as a director last week in a move which appears to have ended his short association with the Elland Road club.
Gulf Finance House’s acting chief executive was an influential figure behind the takeover of Leeds by GFH Capital in December and he joined United’s board the following month.

Former club chief executive Shaun Harvey, meanwhile, has also formally resigned as a director ahead of the start of his reign as Football League chief executive next Tuesday.
The departure of Alrayes and Harvey leaves only three members on the United board - chairman Salah Nooruddin, managing director David Haigh and GFH Capital executive Salem Patel.
GFH Capital was asked to comment on Alrayes’ resignation but did not respond.
