Mateusz Klich sends three-word message as Leeds United transfer confirmed
Mateusz Klich has sent a three-word message to Tyler Roberts as the latter’s exit from Leeds United was confirmed.
Roberts has joined fellow Championship club Birmingham City for an undisclosed fee on a four-year deal, as per the club’s official Twitter account.
The 24-year-old made 108 appearances for the Whites, where he helped the club lift the 2019/20 Championship trophy.
Roberts spent last season on loan at Championship club QPR, making 20 appearances in all competitions.
The player took to Instagram to thank Leeds for his time at Elland Road, with former Whites player Klich commenting: “Good luck bro.”
Fond memories
Roberts may not have been a crucial player at Leeds in recent times, but he will definitely have fond memories of his time at Elland Road, as will fans of the club.
His exit was perhaps inevitable this summer, with the player recently spending time on loan at QPR, with a permanent move now taking place.
The forward spent five years at Elland Road following his move from West Brom in 2018, and in that time he was a favourite among Leeds fans, playing a key role as the club found their way back into the Premier League.
Roberts clearly wants to play more regularly, and that looked more likely at Birmingham than it did at Leeds next season.
He joins the Midlands outfit on a four-year deal, and will of course be in for some exciting challenges against his former club in the Championship next season when Birmingham take on the Whites.
