Hollywood actor Russell Crowe has revealed in a new interview that he came within a phone call of being Leeds United owner a decade ago.

The world-renowned star who lent his voice to Amazon Prime documentary series 'Leeds United: Take Us Home' has previously spoken about his association with, and long-held passion for, the Elland Road club which he says began during the early 1970s. For the first time since announcing he now owns a small percentage of the club as part of 49ers Enterprises' investment consortium, Crowe has told Radio X that he once came very close to owning the club himself.

The reason I don’t talk about it so much is because every time I talk about it, certain types of Leeds fans then go, ‘you’re trying to build your own career by talking about our football club.’ 'But I just sort of felt that they just needed a bit more focus,' Crowe added, explaining the reason he did ultimately did not become a key player within the Leeds hierarchy ten years ago.
