Andrea Radrizzani interacts with Leeds fan on Twitter asking for Ben White update
Every single Leeds United fan wants the Whites to make Ben White their marquee signing this summer at Elland Road.
The Brighton loanee took the Championship by storm last season, completing every single minute as Leeds romped to the title.
White has become Marcelo Bielsa’s number one priority this summer, but it won’t be straightforward to get that deal over the line.
Sky Sports shared over the weekend that Leeds have had two bids rejected by Brighton for one of their best defensive talents.
According to their reports, the second offer was £22million and White himself has rejected more than one offer of a new contract at the AMEX.
Fans are starting to get restless, and any update would put them at ease as they wait for their club to make an announcement.
The Leeds faithful have even started asking owner Andrea Radrizzani for updates, and he may have given the first positive reaction.
The Italian has liked a tweet on his personal Twitter account from a fan asking him if there is any news regarding the future of White.
This isn’t anything definitive, but what we will say is it’s not like Radrizzani to interact with fans if there wasn’t anything positive to report.
It was reported by the Sun that Graham Potter plans to use White in his starting XI next season, so Leeds will have to add significant funds to the rejected £22million fee to turn his head.
The FreeBenWhite hashtag has started trending across the United Kingdom on Twitter, as Leeds fans push for the popular defender to return to Elland Road next season.
