Leeds United certainly enjoyed one of their best years in the clubs' history in 2020, despite so many things going wrong.

Without fans present every single week, the Whites managed to win the Championship and tackle the Premier League head-on.

Marcelo Bielsa is to thank for the majority of that, but this squad of players have achieved something special and will always be remembered.

Luke Ayling has played a massive part in this success and has recently taken to his personal Instagram account to address the past year.

Ben White and Barry Douglas were just two of the names that responded to the video of the squad celebrating promotion, proving they will always have a special bond.

This was the moment of 2020.

Promotion back to the Premier League was special, and seeing the players celebrate with the likes of Bielsa was incredible to see at Elland Road.

Ayling has spearheaded the Whites to a positive start to life in the Premier League too, with Douglas and White a distant memory at Elland Road.

The Scotsman will leave the club at the end of the season after his loan move to Blackburn, and White will always be one of those players the fans would welcome back with open arms.

Brighton are struggling this season, and it would be interesting to see if Leeds would attempt to sign the defender should they be relegated come this time in May.
