Leeds manager Neil Redfearn is urging his players to stay focused on football as more takeover talk engulfs the club.

Reports suggest drinks company Red Bull are looking to buy out president Massimo Cellino and take charge at the Championship side.

Cellino has confirmed that talks have taken place with the energy drinks company, which owns clubs in New York, Leipzig and Salzburg, about buying a stake rather than a full takeover.

Cellino has proved to be a controversial owner for Leeds, sacking three managers in Brian McDermott, Dave Hockaday and Darko Milanic.

"It is important that I keep the players focused on the game," said Redfearn on tomorrow's match against Charlton.

Leeds are currently 19th in the Championship, just four points above the trap door to League One.
