Fans of Leeds United have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which highlights footage of some of Ben White’s best moments for Leeds this season.
The footage, which was posted on Twitter here, highlights some of the 22-year-old’s best tackles, runs and passes throughout the 2019/20 season.
In reaction to the post, fans of Leeds have flocked to have their say on the footage, with many suggesting that the club should do all they possibly can to sign White permanently this summer, while others have praised Marcelo Bielsa for his development of the centre-back.

What do we think?
The 22-year-old has certainly impressed for Leeds so far this season, starting all of the club’s 37 Championship fixtures, providing two assists and averaging an impressive WhoScored match rating of 7.05.
However, Brighton & Hove Albion – White’s parent club – recently rejected a five-year-old Leeds fan’s offer of £15.07 for the centre-back, and although this offer is slightly below the 22-year-old’s market value of £4.95 million, it is not difficult to imagine that there could be significant interest from Leeds to make the deal a permanent one with a more substantial offer over the summer.
In any case, it is clear to see from many of the comments that Leeds fans have been extremely impressed with White’s performances with the club, and would love to see him in the white of Leeds beyond the end of this season.
