July 17 marks one full year since Leeds United announced that 49ers Enterprises had taken full control at Elland Road after receiving approval from the English Football League. The 49ers had been minority investors in the Whites since purchasing a 15 per cent stake in 2018, with that increased to 44 per cent in 2021 before becoming full owners last summer.

The 49ers investment also includes some big celebrity names from Oscar winning actor Russell Crowe, to men’s golf major winners Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth and multiple Olympic gold medallist Michael Phelps - among others.
