‘Revelation; Very exciting’ – Super Fans react to medical news as Leeds close on another signing
After weeks of talking about Che Adams, the Southampton striker is yesterday’s news.
And, if it’s true that he was very keen on a move to Leeds, he might be looking at the excitement around Jean-Kevin Augustin possibly joining with a real feeling of ‘What might have been…’
After Athletic journalist Phil Hay revealed the identity of the mystery European striker that Leeds have been following closely all month, it all went a bit crazy on Saturday.
L’Equipe reported that Augustin wanted to join Leeds, Monaco left him out of their squad and his Twitter account starting liking lots of tweets from Whites fans.
The latest news from Telegraph journalist Mike McGrath said that a medical was scheduled for Leeds on Monday.
The Leeds fans on Twitter are hyper-excited at the prospect of Leeds making another signing, and the one everyone has been waiting for, but what of our Super Fans?
We asked them how they felt about the possibility of Augustin joining and whether they’d prefer him to Adams.
This is what they had to say…

So, a mixture of excitement and a small dose of caution given his recent record.
However, Daryl summed things up best for us when he said, “He has bundles of ability, is a natural finisher and, as is well documented, has been picked out by Bielsa as someone he would like in.
“What JKA needs more than anything right now is a bit of faith and an extended run in a team. He’ll get that here and he’ll be a revelation, both this season and onwards.”
That, as they say, is the spirit!
