Bahrain-based businessman Nooruddin, who bought a 10 per cent stake in Leeds from owners GFH Capital in March, said the unnamed party had the financial muscle to “take the club to the next level”.

Nooruddin said: “We are very particular as to the quality and type of investor we want to bring in.

“We are looking for an investor who really adds value and can help us take the club to the next level. I think something might be on the horizon.

“But we have reached a situation where I would say we are close to engaging with one.”
