# West Ham chief Angus Kinnear set for Leeds role

There have been a lot of comments made about West Ham’s hierarchy and whether they are doing a good job, especially this season.

Questions over the transfer policy and the outspoken nature of the co-owners have been voiced, but there appears to be a major change coming regarding some upstairs roles at the club.

According to the [Telegraph](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/05/01/massimo-cellino-poised-leave-leeds-doubts-grow-garry-monks-future/), West Ham chief Angus Kinnear is set to quit his role at the London Stadium to assume a new role at Leeds United who are in the midst of a club sale.

Under-fire owner Massimo Cellino is poised to sell his remaining 50% stake in the football club to Andrea Radrizzani, giving him full control of Leeds having bought the other 50% back in January.

Radrizzani will head up widespread changes at the Yorkshire club. He appointed former Real Madrid director Ivan Bravo last week and will now bring in Kinnear from the Hammers.

Kinnear was head of marketing at Arsenal before leaving to take up a similar job at West Ham in 2013 but his time in east London appears to be coming to an end.
