Leeds United fans on Twitter have been reacting to footage of reported transfer target Ruslan Malinovskyi.
This comes after Leeds-focused Twitter account @LeedsAllOver shared a post on their page relaying news originally published in a transfer report from The Telegraph.
The report claimed that Leeds are monitoring Malinovskyi as a potential transfer option before the current summer window closes in October.
The post also contained video footage, originally shared by @PremierSportsTV, of a goal Malinovskyi scored for his current club Atalanta in their 3-2 win over Lazio in Serie A back in June.
The Leeds page captioned their post saying that Malinovskyi has some “serious power” in his left foot in regards to his goal against Lazio.
This post then gathered a lot of replies from Leeds fans who were quick to share their responses to the footage.
Here’s a sample of Leeds fans responding to the post:
