A lot of Leeds United fans have responded to a thread from LUFCDATA about Ben White.
LUFCDATA has produced a thread of all of White’s best statistics from this season, and they reveal just how impressive the man on loan from Brighton & Hove Albion has been.
According to LUFCDATA, the 22-year-old has recorded the most interceptions in the Championship (86), made the most progressive passes of any centre-back (302), blocked more shots than any other Leeds player (24), and has won more defensive duels than any other player in the league (356).
These stats have impressed many Leeds fans who are drooling over White.
Do Leeds have a chance of signing White?
Yes
No

We need to break the bank to keep him in the summer

Some stats that like mate. He’s going to be a special special player. Hopefully with us.

It’s no use trying to keep things quiet, having played every minute of every league game by now I wouldn’t be surprised if the rest of Europe don’t have a dossier on him as we speak

He’s a Rolls Royce, if we keep him it will be a remarkable coup.

Is it true he’d like to stay at Leeds next season. I thought I’d heard this some where. Lets hope so

What do we think?
As well as his impressive stats, the 22-year-old has averaged a 7.05 rating in the league and has played every single league game for Marcelo Bielsa’s men.
It is therefore no wonder that the likes of Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea have all reportedly got their eyes on White.
If Leeds are to have any chance of keeping him for next season, then you would imagine they have to secure promotion to the Premier League.
