Massimo Cellino ban extended until May

A joint statement from Leeds and the Football league read: "The club and Cellino have decided in the interests of the club, its players and supporters not to contest this charge.

"As a result, Cellino's period of disqualification as a 'relevant person', as defined by the regulations, has now been extended from April 10 until May 3, the day after the conclusion of the 2014-15 league season.

"Cellino's right to challenge the decision of the Professional Conduct Committee under Football Association Rule K is unaffected by this settlement."
