At the time of writing this, a lot of Leeds United fans have taken to Twitter to talk about Ben White after more rumours linking him to Liverpool emerged.
The 22-year-old defender was linked with a move to Anfield in November, and both Chelsea and Manchester United have watched White this season.
Do you think Leeds will sign White in the summer?
Yes, as long as we are promoted
No, another club will snap him up
The latest link to Liverpool came from a report in the The Athletic and it certainly has these Whites fans talking.
More talk of Ben White to Liverpool doing the rounds this morning.
Thankfully for Leeds, the boy's main focus right now is on just one thing: promotion.https://t.co/Kqo05KUFux— James Marshment (@marshyleeds) February 24, 2020
I’d be gutted to see him go but he deserves the very best deal and for whichever club he wants to go to. Yes I’d love him to stay at Leeds should we get promoted but he’s given everything and more this season x

I not really care as he is not a Leeds player after May.

He wouldn’t play for them, we’ll sign him if we go up anyway

Best defender we have had in a long while will be gutted seeing him leave tbh

He’ll be 100% leaving Brighton in the summer, and IF we manage to get promoted then i’m sure we’ll go in for him. As will plenty of other big clubs. All comes down to how much he’s been bitten by the LUFC bug and what we can offer him financially I’d say.

Get promoted and we sign him ourselves . I’d be surprised if he wasn’t quietly hoping for that already .

What do we think?
White has had an impressive season for Leeds averaging a 7.07 rating in the league and completing on average 2.4 interceptions and 1.8 tackles per game.
Marcelo Bielsa has also played him in every league game since the beginning of the season, and he has even provided two assists.
White has impressed Bielsa with his skills, and because of this, he was moved into a defensive midfield position for the 2-0 win over Huddersfield Town.
However, it is in defence where he has impressed the most, and it is no surprise that the top clubs are looking at him.
Leeds might want to sign him in the summer, but that could depend on if they are promoted or not.
